  • Strategic health assessment for large scale Industry development activities: An introduction
    Environmental Impact Assessment Review, 2018
    Co-Authors: Patrick Harris, Francesca Viliani
    Abstract:

    Abstract Attention to the determinants of health and health equity in impact assessment remains under-utilised at the project, Environmental Impact Assessment, level. Determinants focussed health impact assessment has developed at an upstream, policy level, but tends to assess draft proposals rather than form the basis of policies and plans. Project level health (risk) impact assessment tends to focus on a project by project basis, and generally eschews a broad model of health. One answer to this ‘health and impact assessment’ problem is to shift attention to the strategic level, in a similar manner to, and learning from, the development of Strategic Environmental Assessment and its theoretical and practical derivatives. In this article we explain the need for this shift both conceptually and practically by navigating the literature. Our analysis derives specifically from developing the Strategic Health Impact Assessment section of new international Industry HIA guidance, coupled with work in and around health impact assessment and policy analysis for the past decade. We develop characteristics of conducting strategic health assessments for multiple Industry development activities at the supra national, national or regional level. Our intended audience are public administrators, Industry planners and financial sector investors. A particular focus is low and middle income countries, now seen by Industry as emerging markets.
