10th Annual Conference on HIA in Rotterdam, The Netherlands - October 2009

The 10th annual conference on HIA is being held in Rotterdam, The Netherlands from the 14th - 16th of October 2009.

This year's conference theme is: `On the move`. The following will be discussed:

• how to move health higher up on the policy agendas
• how to move on from incidental HIA's to institutionalisation
• how to move on to better integration of HIA in a Health In All Policies approach, trying to create win-win situations for health as well as for other sectors.

Contributions relevant to the theme `movement` such as transport, physical exercise or migration, are especially welcomed, as well as any other HIA related contributions.

All HIA practitioners, researchers and others involved in, or with an interest for HIA are invited to join us in the vibrant environment of the city of Rotterdam to enjoy networking, learning and sharing experiences.

For further information, registration and submission of abstracts please visit the conference website.
