SUMMARY:docUNight: Green City Life / La Belle Ville

Most of the increase is expected to be highly concentrated in just a handful of countries. Cities generate wealth but also concentrate poverty\, inequality\, and ill health. From densely populated slums to homelessness and pockets of destitution\, urban poverty and inequality take many forms. \nGood urban planning is one of the essential tools for shaping the future of sustainable cities – a future where climate change and environmental concerns increasingly dominate future scenarios. Beyond hospitals\, medicines and vaccines\, equitable provision of health-promoting infrastructure such as green spaces\, improved housing\, clean and safe drinking water\, and extensive sewer systems to safely dispose of human waste are necessary minimum components for securing public health in urban areas. \nWHO’s Healthy Cities Network is a global movement working to put health high on the social\, economic\, and political agenda of city governments. For three decades\, the network has been a pioneering driver of change\, creating healthier urban settings that support the health and well-being of people of all ages. \nAbout the Panellists: \nCamilla van Deurs \nThis year\, Copenhagen has been designated the World Capital of Architecture. Camilla van Deurs is the Chief City Architect for the City of Copenhagen since February 2019\, working to shape a more livable capital in one of the world’s most sustainable cities. \nKira Fortune \nKira Fortune\, Ph. D.\, M.I.H.\, M.A.\, B.Sc. has worked for more than 15 years in Africa\, Asia\, Europe\, and Latin America in positions related to public health\, gender and social determinants of health. She works as the WHO Regional Advisory for Healthy Cities\, Health Promotion\, and Well-being. \nLivia Urban Swart Haaland \nChoosing rooftop gardens instead of her studies in architecture\, Livia is the co-founder of the first Danish urban rooftop farm ØsterGro\, as well as the CSA initiative FællesGro and the urban farm and restaurant Øens Have. \nAbout the World Health Organization: \nFounded in 1948\, the World Health Organization is the United Nations agency that connects nations\, partners and people to promote health\, keep the world safe and serve the vulnerable – so everyone\, everywhere can attain the highest level of health. Dedicated to the well-being of all people and guided by science\, WHO leads and champions global efforts to give everyone\, everywhere an equal chance to live a healthy life.
