This WP aims at understanding the awareness of the different actor groups to the impact of two types of substances on aquatic ecosystems in terms of biodiversity and human health: pharmaceu-ticals and food additives. The WP brings together both quantitative and qualitative methods for gen-erating and analyzing data. Each research step will be informed by the findings of the science teams and make an effort to integrate as much of the knowledge produced with regard to toxicolog-ical and ecological

The objectives of WP 10 are to prepare the ground for WP 11, which seeks to assess how the key actors perceive biological hazards in aquatic ecosystems. Before these insights can be provided – and guidelines for changing the actors’ perceptions and actions produced –, the actors involved in the evaluation of biological hazards in aquatic ecosystems must be identified, which represents the objective of this WP. The proceeding outline here corresponds to the approach developed by Lang and Tosun

Effect-Net is a multi- and transdisciplinary project that intends to generate a toolbox for multi-scale chemical effects as a basis for a holistic effect-based risk evaluation, and for sociocultural governance aiming at personal and political responsibility as well as a reduction of emissions of hazardous chemicals into aquatic environments. The focus is on the development of a multi-scale network for the identification and evaluation of the biological hazards posed by emerging high-consumption
