The influence of cities on the health of their inhabitants is not a new phenomenon. However, it is an aspect that is as relevant as in the first stages of formal urbanization during the 19th century. The focus of urban planners should shift towards considering the consequences of their actions on human health and well-being. Issues such as inadequate housing, poverty, stress, pollution, and limited access to employment opportunities and essential services all have significant impacts on public health, as explored in Hugh Barton and Catherine Tsourou's book, Healthy Urban Planning. If you believe that your city has room for improvement in these areas, do not hesitate to contact us so that we can work together to create a plan and public policies to follow, and adapt to the needs of the local government. https://lnkd.in/ds6GRiuX

🌆 Urbanization plays key role in Urban Planning and Development 🏗️. As cities continue to grow and expand, it is essential to understand the impact of urbanization on our communities and environment. In urban planning, the process of urbanization refers to the increasing population density in urban areas, leading to the development of infrastructure, housing, and services to accommodate the growing population. This trend presents both challenges and opportunities for city planners and developers. #UrbanPlanning #UrbanDevelopment #CityGrowth Effective urban planning and development strategies are necessary to ensure that cities can sustainably support their residents while minimizing negative impacts on the environment. This includes considerations such as transportation systems, green spaces, affordable housing, and access to essential services. #SustainableCities #SmartGrowth #CommunityDevelopment By understanding the complexities of urbanization and incorporating them into urban planning and development initiatives, we can create vibrant, livable cities for all residents. 🌇 #UrbanizationTrends #CityDesign #FutureCities Video Source: @NatGeoEdOrg
