Exposure science is an emerging and rapidly growing field dedicated to all aspects concerning the contact between chemical, biological, physical or psycho-social stressors and human and ecological receptors. With that, exposure science plays a central role in protecting human and ecosystem health, and contributes to the global transition towards a green and sustainable society. In Europe, however, exposure science is currently not sufficiently recognised as a scientific field, resulting in inefficient uptake into policies. In response, the wider European exposure science community developed elements and actions under the auspices of the Europe Regional Chapter of the International Society of Exposure Science (ISES Europe), for identified priority areas, namely education, exposure models, exposure data, human biomonitoring, and policy uptake. In the present document, we synthesize these strategic elements into an overarching ‘European Exposure Science Strategy 2020–2030’, following three strategic objectives that focus on acknowledging exposure science as an independent and interconnected field, harmonizing approaches and tools across regulations, and exploring collaboration, education and funding mechanisms. To operationalise this strategy, we present concrete key actions and propose initiatives and funding options for advancing the underlying science, cultivating broader education and cross-sector exposure knowledge transfer, and fostering effective uptake of exposure information into policy. We aim at anchoring European efforts in the global exposure science context, with a special focus on the interface between scientific advancements, application in decision support, and dissemination and training. This will help to develop exposure science as a strong scientific field with the ultimate goal to successfully assess and manage various stressors across sectors and geographic scales.

暴露科学是一个新兴且快速发展的领域，致力于研究化学、生物、物理或心理社会压力源与人类和生态受体之间接触的所有方面。因此，暴露科学在保护人类和生态系统健康方面发挥着核心作用，并有助于全球向绿色和可持续社会的过渡。然而，在欧洲，暴露科学目前并未被充分认可为一个科学领域，导致政策无法有效采纳。作为回应，更广泛的欧洲暴露科学界在国际暴露科学学会 (ISES Europe) 欧洲区域分会的支持下，针对已确定的优先领域，即教育、暴露模型、暴露数据、人体生物监测、和政策吸收。在本文件中，我们将这些战略要素综合为总体“2020-2030 年欧洲曝光科学战略”，遵循三个战略目标，重点是承认曝光科学是一个独立且相互关联的领域，协调跨法规的方法和工具，以及探索合作、教育和资助机制。为了实施这一战略，我们提出了具体的关键行动，并提出了推进基础科学、培养更广泛的教育和跨部门曝光知识转移以及促进将曝光信息有效纳入政策的倡议和资助方案。我们的目标是将欧洲的努力锚定在全球暴露科学背景下，特别关注科学进步、决策支持应用、以及传播和培训。这将有助于将暴露科学发展为一个强大的科学领域，其最终目标是成功评估和管理跨部门和地理范围的各种压力因素。
