Methods for assessing health-related costs of environmental stressors

METEOR is a cluster of five Horizon Europe projects researching the health impacts of environmental stressors, such as air and noise pollution, and chemicals, and related socioeconomic costs. Together they lay out abroad and detailed view of how health is impacted by the environment and suggest policy recommendations to protect our health and the planet.

Cluster Aims

METEOR is creating synergies between projects exploring the health impacts of environmental stressors to create a shared approach.

By sharing research outcomes from each project, METEOR will identify key areas of action to reduce the health impacts of environmental pollution and guide the research community in applying the findings further.

Using the research as a foundation, METEOR will amplify messages and recommendations to policymakers to address key challenges in environmental pollution.
