    Safety of cosmetics is a key issue in the EU. 

    Until July 2013, Directive 76/768/EEC and its 6th and 7th Amendment applied. They were implemented in the different national laws of the Member States which was a rather slow process and not always perfect. The Directive is replaced now by Regulation EC 1223/2009 which is instantly and directly enforced across the EU. Main drivers are codification, streamlining and simplifying to obtain a better harmonization between the 28 Member States.

    The same basic principles, however, remain the same. Thus a cosmetic product on the EU market must be safe and one must be in the position to demonstrate this safety and to provide adequate information to the Authorities as well as to the consumers. Safety of cosmetics and their ingredients is guaranteed through safety assessment and for that purpose a unique dossier (Product Information File) need to be composed. It must be judged by a qualified professional, in possession of a diploma or other evidence of formal qualifications awarded on completion of a university course of theoretical and practical study in pharmacy, toxicology, medicine or a similar discipline, or a course recognized as equivalent by a Member State (Art. 10.2).

    Several reasons can be given that urge potential safety assessors of cosmetics to follow additional specific academic training in safety evaluation of cosmetics. Reasons include the unadapted traditional lesson packets of the diplomas mentioned in the EU Regulation, the difficulties generated by moving from in vivo to in vitro testing in safety assessment of cosmetic ingredients and finished products, the special needs for small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs), the important tasks of the Responsible Person, the growing awareness of the consumer and the changing role of raw material suppliers for cosmetics. This course, therefore, offers an intensive training programme designed for safety assessors of cosmetics in the EU. It is also open to raw material suppliers, Responsible Persons, SMEs, contract laboratories, inspectors and legislators.

    This course is realized in close collaboration with the cosmetic industry and teaching is done at high standard academic level. Particular emphasis is given to key issues in safety evaluation of cosmetics including the application of alternative methods and the interpretation of the results, how and when animal testing can be done or remains a necessity, what are the toxicological requirements by the Commission for cosmetic ingredients testing. At the end of the theoretical course, practical training in which the realization of a Product Information File (PIF) according to Annex I of Regulation EC 1223/2009 for a finished cosmetic product is central, is included. The possibility will be given to all participants to pass a written exam (open book exam) during the last day of the course.

    If we look back at 1946, a computer was essentially a physics experiment, and the same is true of quantum computers today. Peter Shor showed that if a quantum computer could be built then it would be possible to compromise public key cryptography by factoring integers exponentially faster than the best known classical computer.

    To date, the greatest efforts in 3R-alternatives have focused heavily on regulatory toxicity, a field in which great progress has been made, supporting a shift towards more humane animal experimentation strategies. However, alternative methods in basic and applied research, has so far received much less attention, with a heavy reliance on animal experimentation still the norm. This will be the focus of the upcoming IC-3Rs Symposium, which under the guidance of the Francqui laureate  prof dr Maurice Whelan, will spotlight/highlight innovative research examples and new developments that spearhead the way forward!

    Objectives of the intensive course

    The course offers an intensive training programme, designed for those of graduate and postgraduate status, in the field of dermato-cosmetic sciences. Our aspiration is not only to provide up-to-date reliable scientific information of university standard regarding the preparation and production of chemically and toxicologically well defined products, but also of the close interaction between dermatologic or cosmetic products and the skin as a living organ. The course is aimed to form specialists for the cosmetic industry, the dermatologically oriented pharmaceutical industry and for professionals in research and development, scientists, marketeers and training people involved in dermato-cosmetics.

    Our Intensive Course in Dermato-Cosmetic Sciences is organized this year for the 32nd time at the Vrije Universiteit Brussel. The course evoluates more and more towards an “Intensive Course in Dermato-Cosmetic Sciences with focus on efficacy of cosmetic products”.

    As you probably know, in the new Cosmetic Regulation N°1223/2009/EC, efficacy plays a more prominent role than before.

    In the actual course you will hear what the new EU regulatory framework means in terms of safety and claim substantiation.

    In June 2000, the European Council adopted the Racial Equality Directive 2000/43/EC in a record tempo (Geddes and Guiraudon, 2004; Givens and Evans Case, 2014). Next to the efforts of anti-racist activism, it was the government participation of the radical right-wing populist party FPÖ in Austria that played an important role in the genesis of the Directive. The Directive stemmed racial equality activists hopeful, as it covered both direct and indirect discrimination and allowed scope for positive action. Researchers quickly warned however that, although the Directive introduced big changes in national legislation, this only concerned policy on paper as the new anti-discrimination legislation in Europe was poorly implemented on the national level (Bell, 2008; Möschel, 2011).

    Times have changed since the adoption of the Racial Equality Directive. Today, participation of radical right-wing parties in governments has become the new ‘normal’ and anti-racist claims-making, particularly from black and Muslim grassroots activists, has considerably increased. The activists of the ‘second anti-racist wave’ (Wekker, 2018) have lost hope in anti-discrimination legislation, and its individual approach, and demand structural reforms and the decolonization of minds and societal structures. What does the co-existence of these two phenomena (right-wing populism and anti-racist activism) mean for the development of racial equality policy, as both pull in different directions. Do anti-racist activists have a stronger voice in European and national policy circles or not? Or, do populist pressures make it impossible to gain whatever victory in the development and implementation of racial equality legislation and policies?

    rhea logoThe citizenry of West-European countries is increasingly diversifying. However, much of the literature continues to focus on integration policies for newly arriving migrants, as opposed to equality and anti-discrimination policies targeted at citizens with a migration background. This PhD project explores how European countries respond to persisting inequalities faced by citizens of migrant origin by studying policy frames regarding ethno-racial inequalities in Belgian and German education and employment policy. Using critical frame analysis, the project shows how ethno-racial inequalities in education and employment are conceived and framed in public policy and how variation in these policy frames might be explained.

    The invention of genetic transformation of plants in the early 1980s has resulted in one of the fastest adopted new technologies in the history of agriculture. However, the deployment of these new techniques and of genetically modified organisms has also been subject to much public debate about anticipated benefits and potential risks. In this context, the Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB) hosted in 2017 a debate seminar on the role of modern biotechnology in the production of food, and the role of universities.  On 11 December 2018 the VUB will host a second debate seminar for VUB students and faculty. The seminar will start with a documentary illustrating some views ‘in favour and against’, followed by some brief statements by faculty members and practitioners, to kick off the debate.  The aim of the seminar is to discuss the broader perspectives underlying the various views.

    This workshop addresses processes of translation and transfer of and with regard to law.In the area of commercial law legal practitioners and merchants interact on legal matters. Papers will tackle the issue of commercial custom and practice, and its transposition into law. Also the topic of impact will be discussed. To what extent was law for its trans-lation dependent from transparant formulations? The workshop is part of the ERC-funded project AveTransRisk - Transaction Costs and Risk Management During the First Globalization (Sixteenth-Eighteenth Centuries) (Prof. M. Fusaro, University of Exeter). This project aims to analyse General Averages as vehicle and locus of risk allocation in the maritime industry in the early modern period.
