About the GreenFacts Co-Publications

A GreenFacts Co-Publication is a faithful summary of an authoritative scientific report on an environmental or health topic. It is produced under contract with a third-party organization. Like the GreenFacts Digests, the Co-Publications are peer-reviewed by independent experts. However, the peer review and entire publication process of the Co-Publications is controlled by the contracting organization (rather than by the GreenFacts Scientific Board). › More about GreenFacts Co-Publications

GreenFacts publications are designed to be published online as questions and answers, using GreenFacts copyrighted Three-Level Structure of increasing detail. This allows readers to choose the level of detail that best suits their needs. In the case of the Co-Publications, only the Level 1 (i.e. the short summary) is published on copublications.greenfacts.org. The whole Co-Publication, including the Level 1, the Level 2 (the detailed summary), and the Level 3 (the source document), is published on the website of the contracting organization (or on another website). The Co-Publications are available in several languages.

GreenFacts is an independent, multi-stakeholder non-profit organization based in Belgium. Our mission is to bring complex scientific reports on health and the environment to the reach of non-specialists. We publish two types of faithful summaries of scientific reports: GreenFacts Digests (which are authorized by the GreenFacts Scientific Board), and GreenFacts Co-Publications (which are published at the request of contracting organizations).
