WHY WE DID THE WORK
• HIA within EIA (Historically)
• NSW Health and Equity Statement (Recently)
• Recognised need to build capacity to undertake HIA
• Ultimately to embed in policy and planning

WHAT WE HAVE DONE ‘Learning by doing’
• Phase 1 & 2 - Awareness raising, exploration, early adoption.
• Phase 3 – Embedding in the ‘health’ system
• 11 sites undertaken HIA’s,
8 more late 2006
• Supported through:– Training
– Helpdesk
– Site Visits
• Communication and information dissemination– HIA E-News
– HIA Connect Website
• Strategic engagementPhotos: Ben Harris-Roxas
The First Day of Training

The Sites to date• Phase 2: (internal)
– 4 x Health proposals,1 x Planning proposal
• Phase 3: (internal and intersectoral)– 4 x Planning 2 x Health proposals– 8 next round
• ‘Learning by doing’ comments:– “Best way to learn - but time
consuming”– “It’s productive, enjoyable and
sustainable”
A HIA is being undertaken on a Major Metropolitan plan for
Sydney

FINDINGS TO DATE – specific to sites
• HIA as intersectoral tool– but ‘health’ a problem for some
• Takes time and can be resource intensive– is complex but less so with experience– requires institutional recognition and
support
• Is highly context specific • Screening and scoping• SDOH / ‘Equity’ useful
![Page 10: NSW Health Impact Assessment Project Patrick Harris *, Ben Harris- Roxas *, Lynn Kemp *, Liz Harris * Centre for Health Equity Training, Research & Evaluation.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102718/56649f385503460f94c54bab/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
IMPLICATIONS
• Strong on building from bottom up – e.g. Workforce devt
• Created a platform of experienced HIA teams
• Restructure (+ve and –ve)
• Questions around other levels to embed in system
• Action research

Level Organisational Development
Workforce Development
Resource Allocation
Partnerships Leadership
Macro e.g. Discuss Health Impacts (incl. HIA) in executive meetings with other agencies
e.g. Offering developmental sites places to other agencies
e.g. Providing resources for strategic HIAs
e.g. Engaging and collaboration and alliances with other
sectors
e.g. Generate leadership and uptake of particular aspects of HIA
Meso e.g. Develop organisational commitment to the adoption of HIA.
e.g. Dissemination of results from HIA devt sites
e.g. Support for sites to undertake HIAs
e.g. Engaging and collaborating with other sectors
e.g. Health Department statement of priorities for wider
engagement
Micro e.g. Developmental sites – building ability to implement HIA
e.g. Masters level course developed
e.g. Support provided for routine HIAs
e.g. Using HIA to promote/develop local partnerships
e.g. Showcasing and recognition of work on HIA

THE FUTURE FOR US
• Manual and MPH course
• Next round (community participation and policy proposals)
• Get away from CHETRE as HIA experts
• HIA practitioner network
• Collaboration– International research– 2007 conference
