Health Impact Assessment - ISS-G20 Laboratorium Repository

A Health Impact Assessment (HIA) is a process to evaluate the potential positive and negative public health effects of a plan, project, or policy before it is approved, built, or implemented. State, federal, and tribal governments; community organizations; and other groups are increasingly conducting HIAs to inform decision-making processes for transportation, land use, climate change, and other sectors. Conducting an HIA requires access to high-quality data about many different areas that affect our health including environmental, cultural, economic, and social conditions.
