ABSTRACT Welsh Government’s (WG) Wellbeing of Future Generations (Wales) Act 2015 (Welsh Government 2015) is a unique legislation which demonstrates its commitment to sustainable development. It is the only global legislation that enshrines the UNs Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) within it. It emphasises WGs commitment to a ‘Health in All Policies’ approach to policymaking by emphasising the sustainable development principle is integrated to address seven Wellbeing Goals. Two of these goals are focussed on health and (in)equality which ties them distinctly to the practice of Health Impact Assessment (HIA). The World Health Organisation recommends the use of HIA to achieve the SDGs but not how to practically do this. This paper describes a HIA undertaken on a proposed major electricity cable connection development in Wales. It discusses how this HIA was the catalyst for considered thinking about the HIA process and how it can be used to consider and implement the Well-being Goals in practice, and initiates further thinking about how this can be extended to implement and address the SDGs at a local, regional and national level.

在实践中使用健康影响评估来实现可持续发展目标:威尔士的案例研究

摘要威尔士政府(WG)的《 2015年下一代福利(威尔士)法》(威尔士政府2015年)是一项独特的立法,体现了其对可持续发展的承诺。这是其中唯一体现联合国可持续发展目标(SDG)的全球立法。它强调了工作组通过强调可持续发展原则来实现七个福利目标,从而致力于决策中的“所有政策中的健康”方法。其中两个目标集中在健康和(不平等)方面,这与健康影响评估(HIA)的实践有着明显的联系。世界卫生组织建议使用HIA来实现SDG,但实际上不建议这样做。本文介绍了一项针对威尔士拟议的主要电缆连接开发进行的HIA。
