International Volcanic Health Hazard Network International Volcanic Health Hazard Network The International Volcanic Health Hazard Network (IVHHN) is an organization that provides research and information on the health hazards and impacts of volcanic eruptions. IVHHN work covers a range of research areas including volcanology, toxicology, public health and exposure science, with the goal of determining the health impacts of volcanic emissions and how to protect exposed communities. According to the IVHHN website, the main aims of IVHHN are to: Improve Communication Promote Research Instigate Collaboration IVHHN has created a range of evidence-based audio-visual and printable products on the health hazards of volcanic emissions and community
