A roadmap was developed to strengthen standardisation activities for risk governance of nanotechnology. Its baseline is the available standardised and harmonised methods for nanotechnology developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), the European Committee for Standardization (CEN), and the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). In order to identify improvements and needs for new themes in standardisation work, an analysis of the state-of-the-art concepts and interpretations of risk governance of nanotechnology was performed. Eleven overall areas of action were identified, each including a subset of specific topics. Themes addressed include physical chemical characterisation, assessment of hazard, exposure, risk and socio-economic factors, as well as education & training and social dialogue. This has been visualised in a standardisation roadmap spanning a timeframe of ten years and including key outcomes and highlights of the analysis. Furthermore, the roadmap indicates potential areas of action for harmonisation and standardisation (H&S) for nanomaterials and nanotechnology. It also includes an evaluation of the current level (limited, moderate, intense) of ongoing H&S activities and indicates the time horizon for the different areas of action. As the identified areas differ in their state of development, the number and type of actions varied widely amongst the different actions towards achieving standardisation. Thus, priority areas were also identified. The overall objective of these actions is to strengthen risk governance towards a safe use of nanomaterials and nano-related products. Though not explicitly addressed, risk-based legislation and policies are supported via the proposed H&S actions.

制定了路线图以加强纳米技术风险治理的标准化活动。其基准是国际标准化组织 (ISO)、欧洲标准化委员会 (CEN) 和经济合作与发展组织 (OECD) 开发的可用的纳米技术标准化和统一方法。为了确定标准化工作中新主题的改进和需求，对纳米技术风险治理的最新概念和解释进行了分析。确定了十一个总体行动领域，每个领域都包括一个特定主题的子集。讨论的主题包括物理化学特性、危害、暴露、风险和社会经济因素评估，以及教育和培训以及社会对话。这已在跨越十年时间范围的标准化路线图中进行了可视化，其中包括分析的关键成果和亮点。此外，该路线图还指出了纳米材料和纳米技术协调和标准化（H&S）的潜在行动领域。它还包括对正在进行的 H&S 活动的当前水平（有限、中等、强烈）的评估，并指出不同行动领域的时间范围。由于所确定的领域的发展状况不同，因此实现标准化的不同行动的数量和类型差异很大。因此，还确定了优先领域。这些行动的总体目标是加强风险治理，以实现纳米材料和纳米相关产品的安全使用。尽管没有明确提及，但基于风险的立法和政策通过拟议的健康与安全行动得到支持。
