European Workshop on endocrine
disruptors, 18-20 June 2001
In 2001, the European Commission held an international
workshop on endocrine disruptors with sponsorship
by the Swedish Ministry for Environment, Swedish National
Chemicals Inspectorate (KEMI), OECD, WHO and the European
Environment Agency. The workshop took place on 18-20
June 2001 in Aronsborg (Bålsta) Sweden and was
intended to follow up several of the elements of the
Community Strategy for Endocrine Disruptors (COM (1999)
706). In particular, the meeting focused on monitoring,
research and development, test methods/testing strategy
and international cooperation.
The workshop reached a number of important conclusions and made a range of recommendations covering
a number of areas.
