Health Impact Assessment
The HIA Connect website provides resources and infomation about health impact assessment (HIA). Health impact assessment:
- Assesses plans, projects, programs or policies before they are implemented;
- Predicts the health impacts of these proposals; and
- Recommends changes to maximise positive health impacts and minimise negative health impacts. (Health Impact Assessment: A Practical Guide)
