Accredited stakeholder organisations
To ensure a structured and transparent way of involving stakeholders in ECHA’s formal bodies and networks, we run an accredited stakeholder scheme for organisations who have a legitimate interest in our work, who have activities at European level, and who fulfil our criteria. Accredited stakeholder organisations represent diverse interests, for example industry, trade unions, NGOs and academia.
