Urban green spaces and wellbeing
Are greener cities, healthier cities?
Join us for the fourth in this series of GCHU seminars, where you will have the opportunity to pose questions to leading experts in their fields and network with fellow practitioners, researchers and students.
The World Health Organisation estimates that physical inactivity, linked to poor walkability and lack of access to recreational areas, accounts for 3.3% of global deaths. This seminar and discussion will look at evidence and planning practice to ask are greener cities, really healthier cities?
Invited speakers at this public seminar will consider the crises, challenges and opportunities for delivering sustainable and appropriate healthcare in cities experiencing rapid population increase and urban expansion.
This event is free and open to all. Refreshments from 17:00.
