International radiation emergency preparedness and response standards outline provisions for mitigating these effects.

The document is structured into five sections. The first presents the key experiences and challenges that justify a renewal of the EPHFs.

Finally, in the last section, considerations are put forth to guide EPHF implementation as a means of strengthening the health sector.
