| Abstract | Each sheet in this Sourcebook presents a single issue on environmental health. The sheets can be reproduced and distributed in a training session. Each topic is presented in easy to understand language and fully illustrated. The sourcebook gives practical ideas on issues affecting health and the quality of life in general. It is a compilation of articles on environmental issues based on a wide range of previously published materials drawn from bilateral and multilateral agencies, individual writers, non-governmental organizations and the global press. It contains 68 topics useful for trainers, program managers and rural development institutions. The sheets are grouped into seven major areas: Environmental health concepts; Agriculture and agro-ecosystem health; Agricultural/livestock production and human health; Water, sanitation and water-related health problems; Health, housing and urban development; Climate change, waste and air pollution; and Occupational health. |
