International EMF Project's 16th International Advisory Committee meeting was held on May 16-17, 2011, in Ljubljana, Slovenia. Organized by WHO, the event focused on electromagnetic fields (EMFs) and involved key updates on scientific research, policy development, risk assessment, and emerging technologies. Emilie van Deventer opened the meeting, emphasizing the project's role in advancing global EMF knowledge, funded by partners like Slovenia and Canada.

Key scientific activities included the finalization of EHC publications on static and low-frequency EMFs, which underpinned ICNIRP guidelines. Policy work highlighted MODEL LEGISLATION and the need for a GUIDE for local authorities on mobile base station siting. Risk communication efforts involved improving fact sheets and web content to address public concerns, especially in developing countries. Emerging technologies discussed included RFID, Wireless Body Area Networks (WBAN), and THz radiation, alongside concerns like potential interference with medical devices and security applications.

The meeting reviewed IARC's upcoming evaluation of RF carcinogenicity, noting unresolved issues in long-term health effects. Administrative matters included resource mobilization for final project stages. Overall, the project aims to support evidence-based policies and global collaboration on EMF risks.
