History

The research programme “Science for a Sustainable Development – SSD” is the continuation of the first and second Scientific Support Plan for a Sustainable Development Policy (SPSD I & II). But it integrates new themes, namely "Health and Environment" and "Standardisation". These themes build upon the preceding programmes “Workers' healthcare” and “Standardisation and Technical Regulation”, which both formed part of the “ Scientific Support Plan for integrating the concepts of quality and safety of production environments, processes, and goods into a context of sustainable development” (1998-2004).
