VOICE OVER: Living healthy lives in as safe and healthy an environment as possible.
That is the goal of RIVM: the Dutch National Institute for Public Health and the Environment.
The focus on living healthy lives starts even before birth.
We ensure optimal newborn screening programmes, fight against infectious diseases...
and have a key role in population screening programmes.
All this is done through research and advice that contributes to the health of people...
and the environment.
We also conduct research regarding the quality of health care...
safe consumer products and a safe and healthy living environment.
RIVM maintains this focus throughout the life course.
In the Netherlands and beyond.
Through all the stages of life.
Now...
and in the future!
