Come and find out about/debate the use of HIA to help address complex and 
problematic issues in urban planning, regeneration and housing.

For the last three years, public health departments in Camden and Islington 
have been developing the application of HIA with the aim of improving the 
health and well-being of local communities in an urban environment.

Some key themes to be explored in presentations, interactive sessions and 
workshops are:
Community involvement and participation in HIA
The role of HIA in the planning process
Working on HIA with different groups of stakeholders in the public, private 
and voluntary and community sectors.

Examples from the last 3 years of the HIA Programme in Camden & Islington 
will be used to illustrate key themes, including work done on:
HIA of 6 major redevelopment projects at King’s Cross;
HIA of proposal to develop a fixed site for needle exchange and other 
services in the West End of London;
HIA of regeneration of the Market Estate-Caledonian Park;
development of screening-type tools to incorporate an HIA approach into the 
routine work of local government officers.

We will also hold a discussion of the way forward for HIA in the light of 
recent policy drivers for the use of integrated impact assessment (IIA) and 
the development of sustainable communities.

Target Audience: people working on the broader public health agenda who 
have experience of working on at least 1 HIA. No introduction to HIA will 
be presented: it will be assumed that all participants have a working 
knowledge of HIA.
