CHE is focused on how environmental risks can impact human health. By informing and connecting affected and interested groups, CHE hopes to build a groundswell of demand for prevention-focused behaviours and policies, as well as economic and legal structures that protect public health.
Their mission is to create a world where all people live free from environmental risks that harm human health. Through webinars, Scienceservs, partnerships, Toxicant and Disease Database and publications, CHE cultivates a learning community to share environmental health knowledge and resources, and improve individual and collective health.
Webinars CHE offers multiple monthly webinars that feature leading researchers and advocates discussing the latest environmental health science.
Because Health CHE recently launched a new environmental health educational website called BecauseHealth.org. With a focus on making scientific based evidence approachable and actionable, Because Health makes environmental health more accessible. Because Health brings you everything you need to know about how the places we live, work, and play impact our health. Through a combination of science-based tips, guides, and expert advice, it’s Because Health’s mission to show people simple ways to create a healthier future for themselves and their communities.
Science Servs More than 2400 researchers, policy makers, health advocates, and interested individuals participate in CHE’s topical listservs where informed conversations occur about environmental links to a range of diseases and disabilities and actions being taken to address these concerns.
