Projects
EFEIA's research initiatives span human health, ecosystem protection, and risk assessment. Each project addresses a specific dimension of artificial EMF exposure: gathering data, building evidence, and generating actionable findings.
EHS Global Census
Mapping Electrohypersensitivity Worldwide
The EHS Global Census is EFEIA's principal research initiative. It gathers data from individuals experiencing symptoms consistent with Electrohypersensitivity (EHS) and Electromagnetic Radiation Sensitivity (EMR-S) across more than 20 countries.
The 2025 cycle identified 8 distinct EHS phenotypes, with sleep disruption accounting for 40.7% of total symptom variance. The data supports evidence-based advocacy for recognition, accommodation, and precautionary standards.
Active Projects
Each initiative targets a specific context where artificial EMF exposure intersects with health, ecosystems, or infrastructure.
Bees are critical pollinators. Research documents that artificial EMF disrupts their navigation, communication, and colony health. This project supports beekeepers, scientists, and environmental advocates in establishing electromagnetically hygienic apiaries to reduce exposure and protect colonies.
Children and young people face distinct vulnerabilities regarding artificial EMF, screen time, and artificial light exposure. This initiative equips schools, parents, and communities with practical resources and educational programs to support healthier habits across learning and home environments.
A systematic review of scientific literature on artificial EMF and its biological effects. Drawing on a reference base of 4,000+ peer-reviewed papers, this project consolidates evidence-based findings to inform EFEIA's standards, support advocacy, and guide education on EMF-related health risks.
Modern vehicles — especially electric and hybrid models — generate significant artificial EMF inside the passenger cabin. This project identifies EMF sources within automotive systems, assesses their biological relevance, and works to promote electromagnetically hygienic vehicle design.
Contribute to the EHS Global Census
If you experience symptoms you associate with EMF exposure, your participation matters. The census builds the evidence base that supports recognition, research, and policy change for people affected by EHS worldwide.
