Talk:Health impact assessment

message: In the overview there is a sentence which I have difficulty with
"The main objective of HIA is not to seek a "truth" or to generate original scientific information."
1. I think the first part of this sentence could be misleading. Here's why, my sense is that you mean by the above statement that HIA is not research and therefore does not seek universal truths about health impacts. That is true but HIA does aim to apply research findings and more 'universal/general truths' to local contexts to produce 'local truths' about potential local health impacts.
2. I think the second part should be caveated with 'generally' as research is not embedded in HIA because of time and resource constraints not because the approach/philosophy restricts it.
I don't know if I've completely missed the point or the issues I raise are reasonable. Salim Vohra
I have now made some changes to this paragraph as no one has posted any discussion comments disagreeing with the points I raised a month ago 8th Sep 2006. Salim Vohra
The additions have improved the section - much better than before.  Ben Harris-Roxas 06:23, 9 September 2006 (UTC)

message: HIA and HTA share common techniques in their "assessment". Therefore I suggest adding a statement, which explains differences and common grounds. would you agree? --Eumedes 13:33, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
