HBM4EU European Human Biomonitoring Initiative
Coordinator: UMWELTBUNDESAMT (DE)
The overarching goal of the European Human Biomonitoring Initiative (HBM4EU) is to generate knowledge to inform the safe management of chemicals and so protect human health. We will use human biomonitoring to understand human exposure to chemicals and resulting health impacts and will communicate with policy makers to ensure that our results are exploited in the design of new chemicals policies and the evaluation of existing measures. Key objectives include:• Harmonizing procedures for human biomonitoring across 26 countries, to provide policy makers with comparable data on human internal exp…
About Horizon 2020 (2014–2020)
Horizon 2020 was the EU's flagship research and innovation programme for 2014–2020, with a budget of around €77 billion. It bundled FP7's strands with the EIT and the Competitiveness and Innovation Programme, introduced a stronger societal-challenge orientation, and pushed the funding logic toward closer-to-market innovation. New calls closed in 2020 but funded projects continued through 2024.
EU contribution: €49.9M awarded to the consortium. The project runs over approximately 5.5 years from 2017-01-01 to 2022-06-30.
