The origins of our story

A little about what you can expect to discover.

Our Mission

Education for a cleaner future

A New Formula is part of the CONTRAST project, providing educational resources for two age groups (7–11 and 12–15 years) along with teacher materials.

Our focus area covers a broad spectrum of biological effects of chemicals, from boat antifoulants to hormone-disrupting ingredients and pesticides, with emphasis on action and involvement opportunities.

We believe that understanding the science behind emerging chemical pollutants is the first step toward protecting our oceans and our health.
