Resumo: The paper presents a literature review of the application of the Health Impact Assessment (HIA) methodology, disseminated by the World Health Organization in Brazil and Latin America. This study showed that the practice and application of the HA is not common in Brazil or Latin America, as well as the analysis of health impacts is carried out in a superficial way regarding environmental licensing and public policies, indicating the need of the use of specific health impact assessment methodologies, professional training and government initiative. The adoption of HIA in Brazil could serve to avoid adverse health effects and could enhance the positive aspects, as well as to mitigate the negative aspects of projects and public policies, ensuring that people's health is not neglected.

Esse estudo mostrou que a prática e a aplicação da AIS não é comum nestas regiões, e, além disso, a análise de impactos à saúde é realizada de forma superficial em licenciamentos ambientais e em políticas públicas, o que aponta para a necessidade da utilização de metodologias específicas, treinamento de profissionais e iniciativa governamental. A adoção da AIS no Brasil e América Latina evitaria a geração de efeitos adversos à saúde, potencializando os aspectos positivos, mitigando os efeitos negativos de projetos e políticas públicas, garantindo que a saúde da população não seja negligenciada.Univ Fed Sao Paulo Unifesp, Lab Econ Saude & Poluicao Ambiental, Inst Ciencias Ambientais Quim & Farmaceut, Rua Sao Nicolau 210,4 Andar, BR-09913030 Sao Paulo, SP, BrazilUniv Fed Sao Paulo Unifesp, Lab Econ Saude & Poluicao Ambiental, Inst Ciencias Ambientais Quim & Farmaceut, Rua Sao Nicolau 210,4 Andar, BR-09913030 Sao Paulo, SP, BrazilWeb of ScienceUniv Estadual Paulista-Unesp2020-07-20T16:31:02Z2020-07-20T16:31:02Z2018info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion349-358application/pdfhttp://dx.doi.org/10.1590/1807-57622016.0802Interface-Comunicacao Saude Educacao.
