Title: Establishment Of A Collaborative Annual National Radon Outreach Campaign
Introduction:
The Radiation Protection Bureau at Health Canada (HC) leads an on-going National Radon Program (NRP) with the goal of reducing the health risks associated with indoor radon exposure in Canada. A key element of the NRP is to raise awareness and educate Canadians about the actions they can take to reduce their risk from radon exposure.
The NRP began in 2008 and was initially focused on identifying the scope of the problem in Canada and communicating the health risks from indoor exposure to radon across the country, in particular to those areas or groups at highest risk. The second phase of the Program, which began in 2011, is focused on encouraging Canadians to take action to reduce their exposure to radon in indoor air, creating opportunities for key stakeholder groups, such as health care, building and construction industry and NGOs, to develop their own radon outreach activities and encouraging the development of provincial/territorial and community radon programs.
