Chemicals are all around us. We are exposed to them in food, cleaning products, clothes, water and even the air we breathe. What is safe and what isn't? How are we exposed and how can we protect ourselves? And importantly, how can we make better decisions for the health and well-being of ourselves, our families, and our communities?

The goal of this online course is to educate the public at large and to build a broad, woman-led leadership for addressing issues related to toxic chemical exposure. It provides information, strategies and techniques for being more aware of daily exposures and for taking action to protect those around us. The course can be a great learning resource for communities in Small Island Developing States. This is an online course and can be taken any time.
