Brief project description
As evidence on the dependence of human health on a healthy environment increases, it becomes necessary to specify and justify ethical values, potential ethical conflicts and dilemmas, and the different responsibilities at the individual, institutional and population level towards sustainable and healthy living conditions. Health inequalities need to be identified and assessed in how far these amount to health inequities, in particular regarding increasing and perpetuated vulnerabilities, burdening already disadvantaged groups disproportionately. This project works towards a mapping and preliminary assessment of the main ethics and justice issues in relation to environmental health and develops a larger funding application on the multiple dimensions of ethics and justice in relation to healthy environments.
