CA PRIORITY

PRIORITY stands for Plastics monitoring detection remediation recovery. PRIORITY is a science and technology research network focused on developing, implementing, and consolidating strategies to tackle the global challenges of micro- and nanoplastics in the environment. This COST Action will combine expertise in chemistry, physics, life science, engineering, standards, economy, and law. The network will create a robust infrastructure for scientific communication, exchange, and collaboration to foster new research activities and citizen science. PRIORITY aims to enhance the technical standards for sampling and analysis of micro- and nanoplastics in the environment, to develop a more reliable assessment of exposure and biological effects, and to advance activities in terms of environmental remediation and recovery. The Action will support the harmonization of European regulation associated with microplastics. It will assist the European Commission in critical aspects of environmental and ecosystems protection, food safety, and life science.
