NCCEH Evidence Reviews

We produce Evidence Reviews based on our assessments of needs and gaps in evidence-based environmental health practice and policy.  In addition, we collaborate with students on reviews and are currently partnering with the University of British Columbia Bridge Program.  These evidence reviews are peer-reviewed and user-reviewed for both content and usefulness.

We also contract with researchers for reviews.  These are peer-reviewed and content is the responsibility of the authors.

You can access the documents from the list below or click for a list of upcoming reviews.
