化学品风险评估伙伴关系（PARC）目前正在发展中，作为一个联合研究和创新计划，以加强欧盟化学品风险评估的科学基础。该计划旨在将化学品风险评估人员和管理人员与科学家聚集在一起，加快方法开发和必要数据和知识的产生，并促进向下一代循证风险评估、无毒环境和欧洲绿色协议的过渡。NORMAN网络是一个独立的、完善的、有能力的网络，由80多个新兴物质领域的组织组成，并具有巨大的潜力为PARC伙伴关系的实施做出贡献。NORMAN随时准备为PARC提供专家建议，利用其在与新兴关注的化学品相关的先进工具的开发，协调和测试方面的长期经验，并支持欧洲早期预警系统，以解开新兴关注（CECs）污染物的风险，并缩小研究与创新和监管过程之间的差距。在这篇评论中，我们强调了NORMAN开发的工具，我们认为这些工具与支持PARC倡议最相关：(i)联合数据空间和用于新出现的污染物风险评估的前沿研究工具；（ii）提高数据质量和可比性的欧洲合作框架；（iii）为欧洲早期预警系统提供先进的数据分析工具；（iv）通过利用、合并和分享有关化学品的证据和专门知识，为国家和欧洲化学品风险评估提供支持。通过将NORMAN网络的丰富知识和经验与PARC倡议的财政和政策相关优势相结合，可以朝着无毒环境的目标迈出一大步。
The Partnership for Chemicals Risk Assessment (PARC) is currently under development as a joint research and innovation programme to strengthen the scientific basis for chemical risk assessment in the EU. The plan is to bring chemical risk assessors and managers together with scientists to accelerate method development and the production of necessary data and knowledge, and to facilitate the transition to next-generation evidence-based risk assessment, a non-toxic environment and the European Green Deal. The NORMAN Network is an independent, well-established and competent network of more than 80 organisations in the field of emerging substances and has enormous potential to contribute to the implementation of the PARC partnership. NORMAN stands ready to provide expert advice to PARC, drawing on its long experience in the development, harmonisation and testing of advanced tools in relation to chemicals of emerging concern and in support of a European Early Warning System to unravel the risks of contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) and close the gap between research and innovation and regulatory processes. In this commentary we highlight the tools developed by NORMAN that we consider most relevant to supporting the PARC initiative: (i) joint data space and cutting-edge research tools for risk assessment of contaminants of emerging concern; (ii) collaborative European framework to improve data quality and comparability; (iii) advanced data analysis tools for a European early warning system and (iv) support to national and European chemical risk assessment thanks to harnessing, combining and sharing evidence and expertise on CECs. By combining the extensive knowledge and experience of the NORMAN network with the financial and policy-related strengths of the PARC initiative, a large step towards the goal of a non-toxic environment can be taken.
