Goals / remit
| Goals / remit of the organisation: |
The Health and Environment Alliance (HEAL) is
a leading European not-for-profit organisation
addressing how the environment affects health
in the European Union (EU). We demonstrate
how policy changes can help protect health and
enhance people’s quality of life.
HEAL’s membership includes national
organisations in 26 countries both within EU
member states and the wider European region, as
defined by the World Health Organization (WHO).
It also includes European and global networks.
Member organisations, representing a wide
range of health professionals, patients, not-forprofit
health insurers, citizens, women, youth
and environmental experts, help to bring
independent expertise and evidence from the
health community to different decision-making
processes.
HEAL has a strong track record in increasing public and expert engagement in EU and World Health Organisation debates and decision-making processes on environment and health.
HEAL sits on the advisory groups of many EU-funded research projects such as COPHES, INTERASE, SINPHONIE and Henvinet, thus actively contributing to ensuring research results are considered in EU environmental policy-making.
HEAL consults with its members and represents the network in the following official forums: European Commission DG SANCO Indoor Air Quality Working Group, European Commission DG ENV stakeholder group on review of air policy, EU EDCs strategy ad hoc group, ECHA Member State Committee, European Environment and Health Task Force (EHTF), the steering committee of the WHO-led Pan-European environment and health process, as the representative for the health NGO community, and WHO Europe Working Group on Climate change and health (HIC). HEAL is also a member of the Green 10, the group of leading environmental NGOs active at EU level.
HEAL also has ongoing collaboration with the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), WHO and IPEN.
Our registration is based on the guidelines for transparent registration developed by the Civil Society Contact Group and ALTER-EU. Find the guidelines on http://www.act4europe.org/register, or http://www.alter-eu.org
