Institut Veolia Environnement

Education, Environment and Health

Improving the environment appears to be a key to the health of populations. Appropriate educational endeavors bring optimal effect, playing a determining role in development. At the Johannesburg Summit in 2002, the fundamental link between access to essential services, like drinking water, waste disposal and health, lay at the heart of the discussions on sustainable development. In this context the Institut Veolia Environnement in association with the Institut Pasteur organized in June 2004 a conference on the theme «Education, Environment and Health» which brought together 24 international specialists to identify priorities and propose a program of action.
