A burden of disease approach to prioritizing environmental policy initiatives: a case study in the Middle East.

Jacqueline MacDonald Gibson1.   

Abstract

The UNC-Chapel Hill Gillings School of Global Public Health completed a 2.5-year project to advise a rapidly developing Middle Eastern nation on strategies for reducing environmental risks to public health. The project design, which combined quantitative risk assessment with structured stakeholder engagement, provides a possible template for a strategic assessment of environmental effects on North Carolina medical care costs.
