Fact sheets

The fact sheet series on environmental health inequalities is produced by the WHO Collaborating Centre for Environmental Health Inequalities at the Institute of Public Health and Nursing Research of the University of Bremen, Germany, and follows up on the two European assessment reports on environmental health inequalities published by WHO/Europe in 2012 and 2019.

The fact sheets published so far focus on housing conditions, including overcrowding, dampness, and thermal comfort; access to basic amenities, such as clean drinking water, sanitation, and energy poverty; as well as noise annoyance as an aspect of urban environments .
