While Europe faces dramatic changes and profound challenges, emerging technologies that emit Radio Frequency (RF) ElectroMagnetic Field (EMF) exposure, particularly in telecommunications, have raised public concerns about possible adverse effects to human health. To address these concerns, the NextGEM Project aims to provide a safe living environment in the face of rapid technological changes that necessitate a fast and reliable access to the relevant scientific knowledge. The creation of the NextGEM Knowledge and Innovation Hub (NIKH) is accordingly proposed for accessing the next generation EMF and Health data, thus offering a standardised way for the European citizens, regulatory authorities and the scientific community to access data on EMF and Health. This work presents the aspects of NextGEM with regards to the technological aspect as expressed through the development of the NIKH platform for data provisioning of the newly generated scientific knowledge, regarding novel EMF exposure frequencies, as well as for the connection with the relevant stakeholders.

Abstract
While Europe faces dramatic changes and profound challenges, emerging technologies that emit Radio Frequency (RF) ElectroMagnetic Field (EMF) exposure, particularly in telecommunications, have raised public concerns about possible adverse effects to human health. To address these concerns, the NextGEM Project aims to provide a safe living environment in the face of rapid technological changes that necessitate a fast and reliable access to the relevant scientific knowledge. The creation of the NextGEM Knowledge and Innovation Hub (NIKH) is accordingly proposed for accessing the next generation EMF and Health data, thus offering a standardised way for the European citizens, regulatory authorities and the scientific community to access data on EMF and Health. This work presents the aspects of NextGEM with regards to the technological aspect as expressed through the development of the NIKH platform for data provisioning of the newly generated scientific knowledge, regarding novel EMF exposure frequencies, as well as for the connection with the relevant stakeholders.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
