2022 National PFAS Conference

June 15-17, 2022 | Wilmington, NC

From PFAS Project Lab:

The 3rd National PFAS Conference took place on June 15-17 in Wilmington, North Carolina where we discussed PFAS developments from the previous three years. This gathering brought together research, community, and legislative perspectives to discuss how best to address PFAS contamination.

At this conference, we…

  • Highlighted local community perspectives and global impacts of PFAS

  • Continued collaborative conversations that bring together cutting-edge scientific discoveries with complex social and political contexts of impacted communities that are often marginalized and underserved

  • Identified the best methods to share findings and ensure ongoing communication between researchers, PFAS sectors, and impacted communities

  • Shared information and resources to respond to the needs identified by impacted communities and other diverse PFAS sectors

  • Strengthened existing collaborations and established new ones between scientists, communities, political and public sectors to encourage coordinated and solution-based approaches to prevent future PFAS contamination and exposure-related health risks

Presentation recordings and slides from the conference can be found here.
