Resumo: | This article discusses the perspectives of a number of Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) and trade unions on the risks and regulation of nanotechnology. In the context of large public and private investments in nanotechnology, and its rapid incorporation into processes and products, these groups have sought to advance their interests through diverse strategies. Their positions are centered in the application of the precautionary principle and include demands for moratoria, more investigation on environmental, health and occupational risks, specific and mandatory regulation, transparent information and broad public participation in the governance of nanotechnology. We show that these civil society organizations are constructing collaborations and alliances and have had some degree of success in placing the issues of risks and regulation into the government´s agendas. |

No contexto de fortes investimentos públicos e privados em nanotecnologia e de sua rápida incorporação a produtos e processos, esses grupos têm buscado representar seus interesses através de diversas estratégias. Seus posicionamentos se centram na aplicação do princípio de precaução e incluem pedidos de moratória, realização de mais investigação sobre riscos à saúde, ocupacionais e ambientais, regulação específica e obrigatória, transparência de informação e ampla participaçãopública na governança da nanotecnologia. Mostramos que essas organizações da sociedade civil vêm tecendo colaborações e alianças e tiveram algum êxito em posicionar a temática de riscos e regulação nas agendas dos governos.Instituto Nacional de Controle de Qualidade em Saúde2013-11-29info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion"Peer-reviewed article""Artículo revisado por pares""Artigo avaliado pelos pares"application/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://visaemdebate.incqs.fiocruz.br/index.php/visaemdebate/article/view/12810.3395/vd.v1n4.128Health Surveillance under Debate: Society, Science & Technology ; Vol. 1 No. 4 (2013): November - Nanotecnologia & Vigilância Sanitária; 72-84Vigilancia en Salud en Debate: Sociedad, Ciencia y Tecnología; Vol. 1 Núm. 4 (2013): Noviembre - Nanotecnologia & Vigilância Sanitária; 72-84Vigil Sanit Debate, Rio de Janeiro; v. 1 n. 4 (2013): Novembro - Nanotecnologia & Vigilância Sanitária; 72-842317-269Xreponame:Vigilância Sanitária em Debateinstname:Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)instacron:FIOCRUZporenghttps://visaemdebate.incqs.fiocruz.br/index.php/visaemdebate/article/view/128/75https://visaemdebate.incqs.fiocruz.br/index.php/visaemdebate/article/view/128/104Copyright (c) 2013 Vigilância Sanitária em Debate: Sociedade, Ciência & Tecnologia (Health Surveillance under Debate: Society, Science & Technology) – Visa em Debatehttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessInvernizzi, NoelaFoladori, Guillermo2023-06-27T15:10:06Zoai:ojs.visaemdebate.incqs.fiocruz.br:article/128Revistahttps://visaemdebate.incqs.fiocruz.br/index.php/visaemdebatePUBhttps://visaemdebate.incqs.fiocruz.br/index.php/visaemdebate/oaiincqs.visaemdebate@fiocruz.br || gisele.neves@fiocruz.br2317-269X2317-269Xopendoar:2023-06-27T15:10:06Vigilância Sanitária em Debate - Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)false |
