The literature review carried out between March and July of 2008 revealed the major areas of concern related to the practice of HIA. This section presents these major areas of concern, along with some relevant publications illustrating the type of discussions or debates that are currently underway or have taken place in the past. This is not an exhaustive list of articles or other works dealing with these topics. Readers who are more specifically interested in one of these topics would therefore find it useful to apply the research strategies outlined in this inventory to gain access to a broader range of resources.
