The INSIGHT project will provide a novel, integrated framework for mechanistic impact assessment of chemicals and materials. This multi-layer framework consists of a data graph, a model graph and an impact outcome pathway (IOP) graph that predict the health, environmental, social and economic impacts of chemicals and materials. The three graphs will be systematically interlinked together and used for integrated impact assessment of chemicals and materials for next generation integrated Safe & Sustainable by Design (SSbD).
INSIGHT is fully aligned with the EU principles of safety and sustainability of enabling and emerging technologies of chemicals and materials, as addressed in the EU’s Chemical Strategy for Sustainability (2020), in the European Green Deal (2021) and in the Advanced Materials 2030 Initiative (AMI2030). INSIGHT supports the European Green Deal, through which Europe aspires to become the first climate neutral continent by the year 2050. Results from INSIGHT will support policy development in the areas of neutrality, biodiversity protection, public health, and circular economy. INSIGHT is also aligned with the EU’s Chemical Strategy for Sustainability (CSS) and will aid the development of a dynamic economy respecting planet Earth as a whole, avoiding harm to humans and the environment.
The INSIGHT Project aims to:
INSIGHT’s Objectives
Specific Objective 1: to develop an integrated computational platform for integrated impact assessment based on the novel concept of impact outcome pathway (IOP).
INSIGHT’s Objectives
Specific Objective 2: to provide curated, FAIR and user-friendly data and models organised in an integrated framework that promotes and supports SSbD.
INSIGHT’s Objectives
Specific Objective 3: to provide open, accessible and interactive guidelines in the form of conceptual decision maps.
INSIGHT’s Objectives
Specific Objective 4: to establish continuous crosstalk with other frameworks and actions and ensure regulatory relevance.
INSIGHT’s Objectives
Specific Objective 5: to benchmark the INSIGHT framework in the context of specific case studies.
To facilitate SSbD decision-making, INSIGHT will develop an integrated decision-support system in the form of interactive decision maps. These maps will be multi-level workflows designed for guided decision-making by industrial and regulatory stakeholders and will be adapted to multiple types of SSbD use cases.
