1 WP6 - Health risk assessment Paolo Carrer, Dpt. of Occupational and Environmental Health, University of Milan, Italy Gyula Dura, National institute of Environment and Health, Hungary SINPHONIE Project kick-off meeting 10-12 November, REC Conference Center, Szentendre Hungary

2 WP6 - Health risk assessment WP co-ordinator: UMIL - Paolo Carrer, NIEH - Gyula Dura Involved partners: NIEH, LGH, CSGL, HPI, THL, UPMCParis06, CSTB, UMIL, USiena, TNO, RIVM, PHA-SK, IV. Duration: October 2011 - July 2012

3 WP 6 - Health risk assessment to evaluate IAQ in classrooms and study the relationships with children’s health to evaluate the relationships between technical features of school environments and health outcomes to define priorities for policy development and to identify research needs AIMS

4 WP 6 - Health risk assessment Health risk assessment: to estimate the probability to have health effects in relation to an hazard exposure

5 WP 6 - Health risk assessment

6

7 Background report (WP2: Literature review; Meta-analysis of comparable epidemiological studies) Data from field studies: - WP3: IAQ pollution in school environments - WP4: Health outcomes in children - WP5: Cross analysis IAQ - Health outcomes STRATEGY - Evaluation of impact of IAQ in classrooms on children’s health based on:

8 WP 6 - Health risk assessment PM, Formaldehyde, Carbon Monoxide, Nitrogen Dioxide, Benzene, Naphthalene, Halogenated compounds, PAHs, Ozone Health risk assessment of IAQ pollutants in schools

9 WP 6 - Health risk assessment STRATEGY – Technical features of classroom environment and study of the relationships with children’s health Relationship between technical features of school environment (building materials, HVAC system, traffic density, etc) and health outcomes performed based on: Literature background report (WP2) Results from field studies (WP3.1 Characterization of the school buildings; WP3.4 Environment context and modelling; WP5 Cross analysis)

10 EnVIE: health, exposure, and source issues

11 WP 6 - Health risk assessment MILESTONES Assessment of results from WP2 (month of achievement: 16) IAQ assessment (pollutant levels + technical features) and study of the relationships with health outcomes (month of achievement: 20) Identification of priorities and research needs for policy development (month of achievement: 22) DELIVERABLES Report on risk assessment in schools and childcare settings (month of achievement: 22)

12 WP 6 - Health risk assessment monthsmeetings Assessment of results from WP2 Background Assessment of IAQ, technical features and health outcomes Identification of priorities and research needs for policy developmentReports OCT 2011 NOV DEC JAN 2012 FEB MAR second general meeting APR MAY JUN JUL 2012 third general meeting Final report

13 WP 6 - Health risk assessment Health risk assessment will be performed with particular attention to inhalation exposure, irritation symptoms and respiratory diseases (airway allergic reactions), and vulnerable subjects (children). Results from all over Europe: inter-regional variability studied in term of IAQ and health impact Priorities for policy development and research needs WP7 – Risk management & development of guidelines/recommendations. WP8 – Communication & dissemination
