HEALTHY CITIES FROM PLANNING TO ACTION

Programme 2014 - 2020 URBACT III

Date of latest update: 2024-05-11

Description

Description (EN):

The project proposes to create a network of cities to deepen the relationship between health and the urban environment, develop policies that focus on the improvement of the health status of the population; as well as developing a rigorous health impact assessment of these policies. Cities may consider actions from different points of view and through different policies, but the global health perspective, will provide a common framework and will allow to share methodologies.

Achievements (EN):

By collaborating at a transnational level, the URBACT programme and HEALTHY CITIES allowed a diverse network of partners to work on one common topic, but coming with different challenges and contexts. This enabled the creation of a community and dynamic learning through multiple exchanges. Within the network the nine partners focused on: 1. Understanding their role as actors in health (health generators, role of the city, facilitator of URBACT local groups) 2. Developing healthier environments through urban planning with a focus on the three main topics (greening and landscape, mobility and connectivity, and lifestyle) 3. Implementing the HIA in urban planning and development projects their healthy development The outcomes of the network were the 8 Integrated Action Plans (IAP), multiple Small-Scale Actions (SSA), the URBACT Local Groups (ULGs) and the final product of the network, the Healthy Cities Generator.
