During the First Symposium on Radiological Protection in Portorož (Slovenia), October 8 – 12, 1963, Yugoslav Radiation Protection Association (YRPA) was formed. Members from Croatia participated in all YRPA activities. YRPA members (3) participated at the First IRPA Congress, Rome 1963. YRPA became a full member of IRPA in 1969 (IRPA had 17 members at that time!). Croatian Radiation Protection Association (CRPA, in Croatian: Hrvatsko društvo za zaštitu od zračenja, HDZZ, www.hdzz.hr) was founded in 1979 and has continued to function within YRPA until 1991. As independent society CRPA became a regular member of IRPA in 1992. Today CRPA has 170 members – from research and university, medicine, regulatory and governmental bodies, industry… Main activities of CRPA: Organization of symposia (national with international participation, regional); International cooperation; Organization of lectures; Cooperation with regulatory bodies, participation in professional committees, members provide advice and assistance to authorities; Spread of information; Involvement of young scientists and practitioners. International cooperation: 1 - Regional level – with Hungary, Slovenia, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, Austria, Romania; 2 - European level – active participants at the European RP meetings, organization of the meeting 2009; 3 - International - Co-operation with IRPA.

open ; 14 ; Funding text The support received by the German Federal Ministry for the Environment (BMU), the European Union Programme for Employment and Social Innovation "EaSI" (2014–2020), the International Radiation Protection Association (IRPA), the Australian Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety Agency (ARPANSA), and the New Zealand Ministry of Health is gratefully acknowledged. ; In this statement, the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) presents its principles for protection against adverse health effects from exposure to non-ionizing radiation. These are based upon the principles for protection against ionizing radiation of the International Commission for Radiological Protection (ICRP) in order to come to a comprehensive and consistent system of protection throughout the entire electromagnetic spectrum. The statement further contains information about ICNIRP and the processes it uses in setting exposure guidelines. ; open ; Ziegelberger G.; van Rongen E.; Croft R.; Feychting M.; Green A.C.; Hirata A.; d'Inzeo G.; Marino C.; Miller S.; Oftedal G.; Okuno T.; Roosli M.; Sienkiewicz Z.; Watanabe S. ; Ziegelberger, G.; van Rongen, E.; Croft, R.; Feychting, M.; Green, A.
