An up-to-date inventory of the available knowledge will:
- Promote the use of NAMs leading to an increased use thereof;
- Stimulate the further development of new techniques, methods and strategies;
- Allow the identification of knowledge gaps, and hence support future funding.
Through this initiative scientists and organisations will be able to:
- Increase the visibility of their work and latest findings to the government, the scientific community and the public;
- Connect with peers and exchange experience on NAMs;
- Identify the right experts, within and outside their own organisation, to engage in (new) collaborations;
- Contribute to innovative science.
