A note on language
Evaluation vs assessment
Policy vs politics
Health vs health services

A combination of procedures, methods and tools by which a policy, program or project may be assessed for its potential and often unanticipated effects on the health of the population and the distribution of these impacts within the population.
Gothenburg Consensus Paper
European Centre for Health Policy (1999) Gothenburg Consensus Paper on Health Impact Assessment: main concepts and suggested approach, WHO Europe: Brussels (adapted by Mahoney & Morgan).

Key Aspects of HIA
• Prospective (ex ante assessment)
• Combination of methods
• Looks at intended and unintended impacts
• Distribution of impacts
• Evidence-informed recommendations

Distribution of Impacts
• Age
• Gender
• Socioeconomic status
• Location
• Ethnicity and culture
• Existing levels of health and disability

If you implement the
proposal
These will be the impacts
If you make these changes
These will be the gains

But this can lead to a lack of consensus about what HIA is
(and what it isn’t)

–Essential components for HIA reports
1. A documented and transparent process.
2. A clear statement of the HIA's goals and purpose.
3. A rigorous, documented approach to gathering and assessing evidence.
4. Clear predictions of impacts.
5. Recommendations for enhancement and mitigation.

–The factors that influence the impact and effectiveness of HIAs
1. Informing implementation
2. Consolidating understanding of health and health equity
3. Enabling discussion of alternatives
4. Clearer articulation of the values that inform health planning and implementation
5. Time
6. The role of individuals
7. Conceptualisations of the purpose of EFHIA

• Lessons learned

–Common criticisms
• HIA is expensive and time-consuming
• Health is already addressed through planning and policy development
• HIA could create duplication and inefficiencies
![Page 31: Health Impact Assessment - INPES Journées de la prévention 2015](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062710/55b6d684bb61eb220f8b461e/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
• Government response
• “Health impact assessments have been promoted as a means of assessing the health impacts of policies, plans and projects using quantitative, quantitative and participatory techniques. While we think that they may be a useful tool, we believe that they have the potential to be expensive and time-consuming, and we believe that this needs to be taken into account in any further consideration of these.”
• [Senate] Committee view
• …There are already mechanisms in place to ensure that important issues are considered across government when necessary, such as the requirements for inter-departmental consultation in the preparation of cabinet submissions, the requirement for Regulatory Impact Statements in conjunction with the introduction of legislation, and statements of compatibility with human rights.
• Community Affairs References Committee (2013) Australia's domestic response to the World Health Organization's (WHO) Commission on Social Determinants of Health report "Closing the gap within a generation": Submissions
received by the Committee, Australian Senate: Canberra.

• …but there is limited evidence to support these claims empirically.
• For example, I was involved in an equity focused HIA that was completed in 5 days.

• HIAs can be politicalbecause decision-making is political
![Page 34: Health Impact Assessment - INPES Journées de la prévention 2015](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062710/55b6d684bb61eb220f8b461e/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
• Decisions are made continually, never just once
![Page 35: Health Impact Assessment - INPES Journées de la prévention 2015](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062710/55b6d684bb61eb220f8b461e/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
• Legislation vs capacity building
• is not enough
• We need a more sophisticated way of thinking
