TAILIEUCHUNG - Protecting Children’s Health: THE NATIONAL PESTICIDE PROGRAM

The GHI Strategy in Kenya identifies three broad focus areas: (1) health systems strengthening; (2) integrated service provision; and (3) creating awareness to create demand for available services. Applying these broad areas will potentially have their greatest measurable health benefits in substantially reducing unacceptably high rates of: (1) maternal, neonatal and child mortality and (2) morbidity and mortality from neglected tropical diseases. The strategy recognizes the opportunities that exist within USG programs to ensure more integrated planning and coordination without duplication of efforts. The strategy builds on the existing interagency governance system on which USG agencies have. | Protecting Children s Health THE NATIONAL PESTICIDE PROGRAM Introduction Page 3 Mission Statement Page 4 Statutory Authority Page 5 Multiple Risk Exposure Scenarios Page 6 Core Programmatic Components Page 14 Strong Partnerships Page 28 Conclusion Page 30 ịQị United States Environmental Protection Agency Office of Pesticide Programs 7506P Washington DC 20460 EPA-735-K-10-001 October 2010 pesticides Introduction The mission of the . Environmental Protection Agency s EPA s Office of Pesticide Programs OPP is to protect human health and the environment from potential risks associated with pesticide use. When used properly pesticides can help control disease-causing organisms and foster a safe and abundant food supply. It is OPP s goal to ensure that pesticides marketed in the United States are sold distributed and used in a way that is protective of people s health particularly that of vulnerable populations like children. This requires that the Office use the best available science when reaching regulatory decisions find ways to communicate those decisions effectively develop educational and training opportunities to help pesticide users make informed choices and ensure proper implementation of pesticide statutes. Protecting children s health is a priority for this Administration. EPA and other agencies place priority on addressing environmental health risks that disproportionately affect children. There are a number of unique challenges to ensuring that pesticide regulatory decisions are protective of children. In its 1993 publication Pesticides in the Diets of Infants and Children the National Research Council stated that children are not little adults. Important differences include Children s metabolic rates are more rapid Children process toxicants differently Children pass through critical developmental stages Children consume more food in proportion to body size as well as different types of food Children s exposure patterns differ from adults .
