Vision and Strategy for Children's Health and Environment in Canada
The development of this Vision and Strategy for Children's Health and Environment in Canada builds on years of work by the partner organizations of the Canadian Partnership for Children's Health and Environment (CPCHE) to gather and synthesize scientific evidence about the links between environmental exposures and fetal/child health outcomes, translate it into user-friendly information and tools for broad dissemination, and engage in dialogue with decision-makers, professionals and the public about the evidence and its implications.
