The National Toxics Network (NTN) is a community based network working for pollution reduction, protection of environmental health and environmental justice for all.
NTN was first formed in 1993 and since then has grown as a national network to support community and environmental organisations across Australia, New Zealand and the South Pacific.

NTN provides non-government organisations (NGOs) with a national and international voice on chemical and toxics issues. As the Australian focal point for the International POPs Elimination Network (IPEN), NTN hosts the international IPEN working group on community monitoring and body burden and works towards the full implementation of the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) 2001 and other global chemical conventions.

Internationally, NTN has represented Australian and global NGOs at the OECD Chemical Joint Meetings and is actively involved in the Intergovernmental Forum on Chemical Safety (IFCS) providing an Australian focal point for their INFOCAP information and capacity building program.

An egroup has been set up by the National Toxics Network (NTN) to enable useful discussion of the toxics-reduction policies and alternatives to toxics (eg perfume-free public spaces, organic farming) the effects of toxics and regulatory and other controls of toxics in order to prevent or manage exposure to organisms and contamination of environmental media (air, water, soil, dust, sediments, wastes, etc).
