Webinar to launch ‘Mellow Village: A Health Impact Assessment Case Study’
HIA

The Institute of Public Health (IPH) is hosting a webinar at 11am on Tuesday 9th April 2024 to launch ‘Mellow Village: A Health Impact Assessment Case Study’.

The case study provides a practical example of how to undertake a Health Impact Assessment (HIA) and sets out in detail the process and steps required to apply HIA to Mellow Village, a hypothetical mixed-use urban neighbourhood development. 

This HIA case study was developed as a support tool for using HIA Guidance that was developed and updated by IPH in 2021. 

It also complements the digital learning module, ‘Introduction to HIA’, which is available free of charge on IPH's Public Health Matters platform. 

The webinar will hear from IPH Public Health Development Officer Dr Joanna Purdy, who will present the findings from a recent survey on the support and training needs of the HIA community, and Mr Ben Cave from BCA Insight, who will give an overview of the Mellow Village HIA Case Study.

There will also be an opportunity for questions.
