Health and the environment

The deterioration that ecosystems suffer and where children are born as well as live directly impacts their health quality of life. Aspects such as poverty, climate change, desertification, air pollution or exposure to legal or illegal drugs become not only social and environmental real challenges, but also a health threat.

Pediatric Environmental Health (PEH) or environmental pediatrics is a pediatric subspecialty which involves the prevention, detection, assessment, disease management and environmental risks which relate to children’s health.

Pediatric Environmental Health Units

These entities or PEHSU (clinical acronyms) are clinical units in which pediatricians, specialized in SMAP, health professionals and experts from various fields work together as a team so as to provide not only clinical care and community education but also training and professional qualifications, apart from agency and entities advice as well as research, which the World Health Organization places at the heart of SMAP management.
