Health in All Policies (HiAP) is a data driven approach to solving health related issues through partnership and collaboration across sectors. This framework systematically takes into account the health implications of decisions, seeks synergies, and avoids harmful health impacts, in order to improve population health and health equity.
The health of communities is affected by policies and practices not only in the public health and health care arenas, but across diverse sectors such as housing, land-use and planning, transportation, public safety, education, economic and community development, and environmental protection. These policies and practices shape our environment and the conditions in which we live, work, learn and play, impacting our health and well-being directly as well as indirectly by influencing our health-related behaviors.
The HiAP framework can help people like state and local legislators, and school board members to identify the ways that policy decisions in sectors such as transportation, education, and housing may affect population health outcomes.
