About

    Urban health is a field of study that focuses on the unique health challenges faced by individuals living in urban environments. It examines how factors such as air quality, access to healthcare, transportation infrastructure, social determinants of health, and urban planning impact the health and well-being of urban populations. Research in urban health aims to identify and address disparities in health outcomes within cities, as well as explore strategies for promoting healthier, more sustainable cities. This field is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from public health, urban planning, sociology, environmental science, and other disciplines to better understand and improve the health of urban residents.
