Environmental Justice and Children’s Health

Environmental justice is defined as the just treatment and meaningful involvement of all people, regardless of who they are or where they live, in decision-making and other activities that affect human health and the environment. The aim of environmental justice efforts is to ensure that people are fully protected from disproportionate and adverse human health and environmental effects, risks, and hazards. The panelists for this webinar will discuss environmental injustice and its effects on children from three unique perspectives.
