Projects funded within the EC Standards, Measurements and Testing Programme (SM&T) of the European Commission aim to contribute to the harmonization and improvement of methods and measurements carried out within the European Union and hence to the comparability of data necessary for e.g. trade activities, monitoring of environment, food and health control, etc. This goal may be achieved by e.g. the organization of interlaboratory studies and certifications of reference materials, the development of new methods and pre-normative research. Examples of projects undertaken in support of the quality of waste analysis are given in this paper, covering different aspects, namely interlaboratory study and certification of extractable trace metals in sewage sludge amended soil reference materials, pre-normative research for the characterisation of stabilized waste (interlaboratory study), and development of field-measurement device for the monitoring of waste water quality; this paper gives also an account of a network aimed at harmonising leaching/extraction tests used for environmental risk assessment. Finally, the main topics of the workshop on Standards, Measurements and Testing for Solid Waste Management are given in the annex, along with a list of participants.
