Trabalho de Conclusão de Curso (Tecnologia em Gestão Hospitalar) - Escola de Saúde, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, 2023.https://repositorio.ufrn.br/handle/123456789/56372This study explores the intricate connection between environmental degradation and health threats, encompassing air pollution, water contamination, and exposure to toxic substances. The imperative to comprehend and implement effective strategies for environmental health not only safeguards vital ecosystems but also serves as a crucial preventive measure for human health protection. The primary objective is to analyze, through literature review, how actions in environmental health can contribute to reducing risks to human health. An integrative review with qualitative, descriptive-exploratory characteristics was conducted, surveying articles available in the LILACS and Scielo databases from 2013 to 2023. The findings underscore the effectiveness of environmental education in sensitizing and mobilizing communities, playing a pivotal role in promoting sustainable practices and preventing health risks. However, challenges in effective action implementation, including economic viability and local dynamics' complexity, must be strategically addressed. Active community involvement is a key factor, and policies encouraging such engagement are fundamental for the success of environmental health initiatives.Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Brazilhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/br/Meio ambienteGestão ambientalSaúde ambientalSaúdeRiscos à saúdebachelorThesisCNPQ::OUTROS::ADMINISTRACAO HOSPITALAR
