Health Impact Assessment | Frenly Community Hub

Health impact assessment (HIA) is a method used to evaluate the potential health effects of a policy, program, or project on a population. The World Health Organization (WHO) has played a significant role in promoting HIA globally. With a growing focus on health equity and social determinants of health, HIA has become an essential component of policy development and implementation. The International Association for Impact Assessment (IAIA) provides guidance on the HIA process.
