WHAT IS THE WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION DOING ABOUT THE ISSUE?
The WHO’s International EMF Project has established a programme to review research results and conduct risk assessments of EMF exposure. It is developing public information materials, and bringing together standards groups world-wide in an attempt to harmonize approaches to the development of EMF exposure standards. Health risks from EMF exposure, including cancer, are being evaluated by WHO in collaboration with the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) – the specialized cancer research agency of WHO – and by ICNIRP.
