A typical radon test kit Fluctuation of ambient air radon concentration over one week, measured in a laboratory. The first step in mitigation is testing. No level of radiation is considered completely safe, but as it cannot be eliminated, governments around the world have set various action levels to provide guidance on when radon concentrations should be reduced.
Radon is a major cause of cancer; it is estimated to contribute to ~2% of all cancer related deaths in Europe. [1] Radium, like radon, is radioactive and is found in small quantities in nature and is hazardous to life if radiation exceeds 20-50 mSv/year. Radium is a decay product of uranium and thorium. [2]
To achieve these aims, WHO has formed a network of key partner agencies from some 40 Member States. This network is the basis for the WHO International Radon Project which was launched in 2005. Working groups will collect and analyse information on radon risk, radon policies, radon mitigation and prevention as well as risk communication.

1 ~0.027 Radon concentration at the shores of large oceans is typically 1 Bq/m 3. Radon trace concentration above oceans or in Antarctica can be lower than 0.1 Bq/m 3, [100] with changes in radon levels being used to track foreign pollutants. [101] 10: 0.27 Mean continental concentration in the open air: 10 to 30 Bq/m 3.
