Actions to improve urban renewal and health equity

Abstract

To close the Healthy City Design 2023 Congress, an expert panel will explore what measures and actions can be taken by urban and city policymakers, planners and practitioners to improve the lives of citizens and reduce health inequalities, while addressing the wider impacts of planetary health.

Reflecting on the lessons learned from the Congress, what are the priorities for ‘climate-resilient’ development and urban renewal that can make the difference to people’s life chances and address health inequalities? What actions are needed to activate change?

Our panel will also explore the next steps for Liverpool’s vision and ambition to build on its legacy of public health innovation to become a health-creating city of the future, building on the strength, resolve and talents of its people and communities.
