Project
Exploring a community-based social justice approach in environmental health promotion.
It is well known that a lower socioeconomic status is related to underrepresentation in environmental health promotion while socioeconomically less favored groups are precisely more exposed and more susceptible to weaker environmental quality and bad housing conditions. This research project explores an innovative public health/community development strategy to overcome unequal participation in environmental health promotion. In cooperation with a professional organization for health promotion and prevention, a concrete case of community empowerment will be addressed, implemented and evaluated.
