Assessing environmental health aspects of environmental justice in communities living in industrially contaminated areas: An international network to share approaches and experiences
EJ associated with ICA has been observed in different countries, as investigated through single-site or nationwide assessments. Procedural aspects of EJ include misrecognition of the rights of affected communities to be informed through inclusive communication. This implies the marginalization of the communities in the decision-making process addressing the health impacts of ICA. We propose an international effort based on collaborative work to identify experiences in diversified contexts, research needs, and intervention priorities.
