HIA Practice Standards Issued by North American HIA Practice Standards Working Group - April 7, 2009. Click here for the Standards.

Human Impact Partners’ vision is a world where
•    health is understood broadly as complete physical, mental and social well-being;
•    health is a primary consideration in public and corporate decision making;
•    health inequities due to race, class, place, or other attributes do not exist;
•    the health of all communities is improved;
•    all people have the information, tools and power needed to influence decisions that affect their health; and
•    health is a holistic framework that brings diverse people and organizations to work together.

HIP believes that health should be considered in all decision making. We raise awareness of and collaboratively use innovative data, processes and tools that evaluate health impacts and inequities in order to transform the policies, institutions and places people need to live healthy lives. Through training and mentorship we also build the capacity of impacted communities and their advocates, workers, public agencies, and elected officials to conduct health-based analyses and use them to take action.
