Framework for Developing Health-Based EMF Standards
Understanding the health impact of electromagnetic fields (EMF) falls within the mandate of the World Health Organization (WHO) in the area of environmental health. WHO aims to help Member States achieve safe, sustainable and health-enhancing human environments, protected from biological, chemical and physical hazards. In this context, the International EMF Project was established at WHO in 1996 in response to general concern over health effects of EMF exposure.
