Health impact assessment (HIA) needs evaluation to prove its value. This study suggests focusing evaluations on HIA processes and their influence on decision-making, not just long-term health outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Health Policy
  • Health Services Research

Background:

  • Health Impact Assessment (HIA) is an emerging approach to evaluate the health effects of proposals.
  • Current HIA research prioritizes methodology and application over formal evaluation of its effectiveness.
  • There is a need to demonstrate HIA's value in evidence-informed policy and decision-making.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose a framework for evaluating Health Impact Assessments.
  • To explore the relationship between HIA evaluation and public health monitoring.
  • To guide future research on HIA effectiveness.

Main Methods:

  • Drawing on existing public health evaluation literature.
  • Suggesting methodologies and indicators for HIA evaluation.
