The Institute of Public Health in Ireland has up-dated its guidance document on HIA.  The guidance provides a user friendly framework to guide people through the HIA process and tools to help carry out the steps in HIA.  

• Health Impact Assessment Guidance (2009)
• Health Impact Assessment Guidance (2006) 
• Health Impact Assessment - a practical guidance manual (2003)

In recognition that the main determinants of health are influenced by social, economic and environmental circumstances, the Institute has produced review documents in a number of areas.  Each health impact document also provides a sources of information report which lists links to organisations who have developed a wealth of information in the particular area.

• Health Impacts of Education
• Health Impacts of the Built Environment
• Health Impacts of Transport
• Health Impacts of Employment
• Waste Management with particular reference to incineration
