Public policy support – Health and environmental risks
The scientists at INRAE and their partners talk about the research, expertise, training and joint management activities carried out together to inform public policies to combat chemical pollution and its impact on ecosystems and public health. The aim of these activities is to characterise pollution, assess the danger to health and biodiversity, quantify exposure to contaminants and anticipate and manage the associated risks.

Permanent public policy support systems
Within the research-expertise-public policy support continuum, permanent public policy support systems are dedicated to supporting public policies and have their own permanent resources. INRAE is involved in various ways in the research-expertise-public policy support continuum.
