injury prevention a Strategic Priority for environmental health
Public Health, 2010Co-Authors: David H Stone, G P MorrisAbstract:Summary Injury results from the acute transfer of energy (or the acute lack of a vital element) from the environment to human tissue. It is thus, ipso facto , an ‘environmental health' issue par excellence . This paper argues that injury consequently deserves consideration as a major Strategic Priority by environmental health professionals. Two international agreements concerning children's health and the environment have major implications for safety. The Children's Environmental Health Action Plan for Europe (CEHAPE) and the European Environmental Health Strategy make reference to the need for improved evidence and greater co-operation between the environmental and health sectors. CEHAPE is particularly relevant to safety as it focuses on four regional Priority goals, the second of which refers to the prevention and reduction of health consequences from injuries by promoting safe, secure and supportive human settlements for all children. The natural Strategic ‘home' for injury prevention may therefore lie within environmental health, a domain from which it has generally been excluded. In support of this assertion, Scotland's recent policy initiative on the environment and human health ‘Good Places, Better Health' is cited, where injury in children up to 8 years of age is one of four child health priorities being tackled during its initial implementation. An important test of the initiative may be its capacity to inform policy, practice and research in the field of injury prevention and safety promotion. If successful, it will help to validate the environmental health approach to a field that remains relatively neglected by public agencies, policy makers, practitioners and researchers.

Injury Prevention, 2010Co-Authors: David H Stone, G P MorrisAbstract:Injury results from the acute transfer of energy from the environment to human tissue. It is thus, ipso facto, an environmental health issue par excellence. In this paper, we argue that injury consequently deserves consideration as a major Strategic Priority by environmental health professionals. Two international agreements concerning children's health and the environment have major implications for safety. The Children's Environmental Health Action Plan for Europe (CEHAPE) and the European Environmental Health Strategy (SCALE) refer to the need for improved evidence and greater co-operation between the environmental and health sectors. CEHAPE is particularly relevant to safety as it focuses on four regional Priority goals, the second of which refers to the prevention and reduction of health consequences from injuries by promoting safe, secure and supportive human settlements for all children. The natural Strategic home for injury prevention may therefore lie within environmental health, a domain from which it has generally been excluded. In support of this assertion, we cite Scotland's recent policy initiative on environment and human health Good Places, Better Health where injury in children up to 8 years of age is one of four child health priorities being tackled during its initial implementation.

integrating suppliers into green product innovation development an empirical case study in the semiconductor industry
Business Strategy and The Environment, 2011Co-Authors: Kihoon Lee, Jiwhan KimAbstract:Green innovation has been recognized as one of the key factors to achieve environmental and economic success in markets. Understanding green product innovation development as a result of suppliers' involvement has become a Strategic Priority for academics and practitioners. This paper aims to explore and understand the role of suppliers in enhancing the manufacturer's ability to successfully carry out green innovation in product development. As a research methodology, a case study approach is employed. Primary data were collected through site visits and extensive interviews with corporate and plant management in Korea. Based on the Korean study, the paper presents following outcomes. First, there is a strong linkage between environmental compliance and green new product developments. Second, there is a Strategically close relationship of environmental collaboration between suppliers and the buying company through technological integration. Finally, involving key suppliers in green new product development for environmentally demanding customers and markets can bring both environmental and commercial success. This research provides new insights on supplier involvement and green product innovation development in supply chain management. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd and ERP Environment.

цифровизация как стратегический приоритет территориального развития digitalization as a Strategic Priority of territorial development
Social Science Research Network, 2020Co-Authors: Svetlana Vladimirovna GeneralovaAbstract:Russian abstract: В статье рассматриваются актуальные вопросы цифровизации территорий как стратегического приоритета их развития. Отмечается, что одним из направлений цифровизации территорий является формирование сети "умных" городов, а именно комплексной инновационно- цифровой, социально-технической, информационно-коммуникативной системы городской территории. Расскрыты особенности реализации пилотного проекта цифровизации городского хозяйства "Умный город". Отмечено, что цифровизация как инновационное направление территориального развития, требует совершенствования системы государственного и муниципального управления. Предложено при цифровизации территорий применять инструментарий бенчмаркинга, что на практике означает непрерывный процесса изучения и оценки лучших практик других территорий с целью использования полученной информации для принятия эффективных управленческих решений для улучшения работы своей территории. Описан процесс применения методологии бенчмаркинга в системе разработки стратегии цифровизации территорий. English abstract: The article discusses topical issues of digitalization of territories as a Strategic Priority for their development. It is noted that one of the areas of digitalization of territories is the formation of a network of "smart" cities, namely, a complex innovative-digital, social-technical, information and communication system of the city territory. The features of the implementation of the pilot project of digitalization of urban economy "Smart city" are highlighted. It is noted that digitalization as an innovative area of territorial development requires improvement of the system of state and municipal administration. It is proposed to use benchmarking tools for digitalization of territories, which in practice means a continuous process of studying and evaluating the best practices of other territories in order to use the information received to make effective management decisions to improve the work of their territory. The process of applying the benchmarking methodology in the system of developing a strategy for digitalization of territories is described
