The Routledge Handbook of Planning for Health and Well-Being: Shaping a sustainable and healthy future
Urban planning is deeply implicated in both
the planetary crisis of climate change and the personal crises of
unhealthy lifestyles. Worldwide health issues such as obesity, mental
illness, growing health inequalities and climate vulnerability cannot be
solved solely by medicines but also by tackling the social, economic
and environmental determinants. In a time when unhealthy and
unsustainable conditions are being built into the physical fabric of
cities, a new awareness and strategy is urgently needed to putting
health and well-being at the heart of planning.
The Routledge Handbook of Planning for Health and Well-being authoritatively and comprehensively integrates health into planning, strengthening the hands of those who argue and plan for healthy environments. With contributions from international leaders in the field, the Handbook of Planning for Health and Well-being provides context, philosophy, research, processes, and tools of experienced practitioners through case studies from four continents.
