Integrated Environmental and Health Impact Assessment (IEHIA) is a multidisciplinary
approach and instrument that draws from disciplines such as public health, the social
and political sciences, environmental science, urban planning, epidemiology and
statistics. Its remit is broad in scope — to protect and promote population health by
analyzing and estimating potential health impacts of projects, programs and policies
and informing decision-makers about those potential impacts.
This course aims to present the IEHIA process, and it provides an opportunity for
participants to work on IEHIA case studies, increasing participants’ confidence in doing
IEHIA in practice
Contents:
• Integrated Environmental and Health Impact Assessment concepts
and approaches
• GIS-based exposure assessment techniques
• AERMOD: an easy interface to conduct a IEHIA
• Dose response relationships Introductions and approaches
• Literature review exercise
• Calculate the Health impact
• Three case studies on Waste, Noise, and Cycling mobility in urban areas

The course will be in English.
Participants are required to bring a laptop with statistical software installed (R, STATA, SAS
or SPSS). All hands-on sessions will be conducted using ArcGIS10. Participants who do
not have ArcGIS10 installed on their laptop will be able to use a student license for the
duration of the course (disks will be provided).
