• Role of ASEAN as a facilitator• Active regional platform and mechanism• Risk management under socio-economic dynamic• Multilevel and cross-boarder dialogue on HIA movement and/or
policy making • Involvement of multi-stakeholders including private sector, investors,
cooperate companies• HIA should be brought up to ASEAN declaration, not necessary to led
by MoH, so cross sectoral action can be happened – providing enabling environment.
The Declaration show how important HIA for ASEAN. HIA can help identify vulnerable people affected by land use,
urbanization, industrialization and climate change. HIA can integrate the 3 pillars of sustainable development• Use HIA to produce the better baseline of the ASEAN blue print.

• Explore effective tools such as HIA, health surveillance, epidemiology for risk management, future mobility, adaptation to climate change
• CHIA : learning and sharing among ASEAN community to cope with transboundary impacts
• To get political commitment it can be a joint statement from Member state
• Capacity building on HIA methodologies is a basis to inform national Minister and create a large group of HIA practitioners
• HIA should not only focus at a project level, but also a planning and policy level.
