Metodi e Pratiche di Health Impact Assessment: stato dell'arte e sviluppi necessari

[Autom. eng. transl.] The Health Impact Assessment (HIA) is a multidisciplinary tool aimed at assessing the health effects of policies, programs or projects. The HIA is divided into five phases: screening, scoping, appraisal, reporting and monitoring. The review of the literature on the subject has allowed the description of good practices within each phase demonstrating the heterogeneity of application of the method. Despite the goodness of some application examples, in particular appraisal and reporting, the dissemination of the assessment culture remains necessary.
