Environmental Health Advocacy

Environmental health advocacy involves promoting policies and actions that protect people from environmental hazards such as pollution, toxic chemicals, and unsafe water or air quality. Advocates work to raise awareness, influence legislation, and support communities affected by environmental risks. Their goal is to create healthier environments, reduce exposure to harmful substances, and ensure that public health considerations are prioritized in decision-making processes. Essentially, it's about speaking up and taking action to safeguard our environment and, in turn, improve health outcomes for communities.
