Endocrine Disruptors Action Group (EDAction) is a coalition of academic researchers concerned with the widespread presence of endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) in our bodies, commodities, built environments, industrial emissions, ecologies, waters, and atmospheres. EDAction investigates ways to improve Canadian toxics governance and seeks to advance critical discussions about the regulation, science, and monitoring of endocrine disrupting chemicals guided by the values of reproductive and environmental justice.
EDAction was formed in the summer of 2015.
The work of EDAction is funded by a SSHRC Insight Grant, and is supported by the Technoscience Research Unit, the Politics of Evidence Working Group, and Civic Laboratory for Environmental Action Research (CLEAR).
