Africa Chapter
Commentary from ISEE Africa
|
A commentary titled “Harmonization of Epidemiologic Research Methods to Address the Environmental and Social Determinants of Urban Slum Health Challenges in Sub-Saharan Africa” by Adetoun Mustapha (Nigeria), A. Kofi Amegah (Ghana) and Eric Stephen Coker (USA/Uganda) has been published in IJERPH, which highlights the mission of the Africa chapter.
The commentary synthesizes commonalities in recent environmental health studies from urban cities in East and West Africa, presented during a symposium sponsored by the Africa Chapter in August 2020. It made a compelling case for conceptualizing and harmonizing a measure of socio-economic status and environmental pollution in African countries to enable comparison of environmental epidemiological data across countries to ensure policy impact.
