The Taub Center Research and Policy Initiative for Environment and Health

The Taub Center Research and Policy Initiative for Environment and Health is a joint project of the Forum for Health and the Environment, and the Taub Center for Social Policy Studies in Israel, established with the generous support of Yad Hanadiv. The Initiative focuses on applied research and the promotion of policies related to an array of environmental issues, among them climate change and the built environment, air and water quality, exposure to chemicals and waste management, with a special emphasis on the impact on the health of the population of Israel.

The goals of the Initiative are to assist in the advancement of public policy in the field of the environment and health through making applied knowledge accessible to policy and decision makers. The activities of the Initiative are accompanied by a Steering Committee composed of leading academics who are committed to promoting effective policies in the fields of the environment and health in Israel. The Steering Committee is comprised of the Founding Committee of the Forum for Health and the Environment and representatives of Yad Hanadiv and the Taub Center.
