Workshops
EHF initiates workshops intended to create an interdisciplinary interaction between researchers, professionals and people working in NGOs in various fields, including: health, environment, agriculture, transportation and more. The workshops are held on a variety of topics emphasizing current policy and research challenges in Israel. In addition, EHF workshops act as an excellent platform for establishing a "health and environment" community in Israel.
The workshops are intended for professionals from academia, government and NGOs who are interested in broadening their knowledge in environmental health.
