How to read discussions

Statements: Rename open risk assessment into open assessment.

Resolution: Accepted.

(A stable resolution, when found, should be updated to the main page.)

Argumentation:

1: We should rename Open Risk Assessment into Open Assessment as it has a wider field of application than just Risk Assessment. --Alexandra Kuhn 17:06, 6 March 2008 (EET), --Jouni 00:59, 8 March 2008 (EET)

2 OA does not refer to environmental health impact assessment (what heande is about). It can therefore refer to an assessment of any issue what so ever (e.g. impacts of acid fall-out on lichen growth). But yes, it is however reasonable to seek for a wider field of application. Something similar as EIA (environmental impact assessment) should be chosen. How about OHIA? --Anna Karjalainen 11.45, 7 May 2008

3: Methodologically, there is no need to distinguish environmental health issues from others. Therefore, open assessment is the right word for the method and its products. --Jouni 11:27, 12 June 2008 (EEST)
