The SPRINT-project aims to develop a Global Health Risk Assessment Toolbox to assess

impacts of Plant Protection Products (PPPs) on environment and human health and to

propose several transition pathways

 


The SPRINT-project aims to develop a

Global Health Risk Assessment Toolbox

to assess impacts of Plant Protection Products (PPPs)

on environment and human health

 

 

 

 

The SPRINT project will make an internationally valid contribution to assess integrated risks and impacts of pesticides on environment and human health, both at regional and European level. SPRINT will inform and accelerate the adoption of innovative transition pathways towards more sustainable plant protection in the context of a global health approach. 

Success stories: Moving away from synthetic pesticide reliance

Copy of Indoor dust factsheet

 

We are pleased to share a suite of success story factsheets, developed as part of the SPRINT project. The factsheets provide short overviews for a wide range of initiatives from across Europe, each of which have successfully transitioned away from a reliance on synthetic pesticides for producing food and/or beverages. The factsheets are available here: success story factsheets.

New summary factsheet: Linking synthetic pesticide exposure to the gut microbiota and brain functioning

brain paper SPRINT

SPRINT have just published a NEW summary factsheet! This resource provides an overview of the links between synthetic pesticide expsosure, gut microbiota, and brain function. This factsheet is based on a review paper written by Rie Matsuzaki and other SPRINT partners. Read the factsheet by clicking here, or check out the full peer-reviewed publication here. 

Join SPRINT at our online pesticide reduction event - 28/06/24!

Pesticide reduction 3

SPRINT are taking part in an upcoming event on pesticide reduction in Europe, taking place online on Friday 28th June from 10:00-13:00 CEST. The symposium will highlight the role played by collaborative Green Deal projects in the effort to reduce the use and risk of chemical pesticides, and to showcase recent research and impact achieved across Europe. Here, we will bring together practitioners, researchers and policy-makers to find common ground and consider policy recommendations for the future of Sustainable Use of Pesticides in Europe.

The Project

logo sprint h200

SPRINT aims to develop a Global Health Risk Assessment Toolbox to assess impacts of plant protection products (PPP) on ecosystem, plant, animal and human (EPAH) health.

The SPRINT method

Rings

SPRINT consists of 9 interlinked work packages. The distribution and the impacts of PPP on EPAH health will be evaluated at 11 case study sites (CSS)

Measure and Model

Measure

PPP pathways, and direct and indirect animal and human exposure routes will be assessed to improve current fate, exposure, and toxicokinetic models

Stakeholders

stakeholders

SPRINT is based on a multi-actor approach to engage stakeholders and identify needs, improving farmer and citizen awareness, joint development of novel strategies for reduced reliance on PPP use.

Funding

SPRINT Project is funded by

the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Programme for research & innovation under grant agreement no 862568
