Urban Life in 2035
Join us for the first UHC Place working group session on scenario modelling life in 2035
Understanding Emissions Data & Health
Join us for the first UHC Advocacy working group session on understanding environmental data and health. We’re introducing a new online lexicon.
Urbanisation & Disease Development
This event discusses the role of urbanisation on disease development. It centres around the latest reports that specifically address the diabetes and obesity which are often portrayed as behavioural failures rather than complex multi-system dysregulations that urban life contributes towards.
2021 Roundup and Looking Ahead
As the private sector endeavours to better account for health outcomes it is important to acknowledge how to read health and urban data to avoid errors.
Using Data for Health Justice
We will be discussing the gap between data and lived experience in order to create a better understanding of the uses of data in health justice.
Location, Lived Experience, and Communities
This workshop will look at the strategies and methods to successfully engage with communities and their lived experience.
Platforming Community and Activist Intellect
Communities and activists are often gaslit and their data, expertise, and intellect dismissed by the authorities who should be protecting their health. This interactive roundtable will be discussing how practitioners and organisations should learn to meaningfully engage with communities and activists experiencing health injustices.
Role of Lived Experience in Health Outcomes
There are always variabilities in health outcomes within communities living in a particular place. This is due to factors presented by lived experience and a person’s urban footprint.
Workshop: Placemaking for Public Health
This workshop is led under the banner that urban planning is healthcare.
It is oriented around how to create holistic plans and strategies that build health resilience for citizens in the face of challenges from climate change.
Living Symbiosis with Nature
Greenwashing happens when we view environmental justice and health as small mechanical fixes like local recycling and congestion charges rather than a cultural and systematic reimagination of relationship with the natural environment. This roundtable will look at how we assess our current relationship with our natural environment and develop an inclusive and indigenised view of healthy society.
Equitable Urban Mobility
Transport has a foundational and multi-faceted role in the health of communities and the citizens who form them. This roundtable will look at transport as a direct factor in health issues such as climate change and local pollution as well as a commodity that gives access to health in an effort to understand how we can build systems that provide equitable mobility.
Workshop: Covid Rehabilitation
This workshop combines the learning from the three reports and is presented in a lecture, discuss, and exercise format.
Air Pollution x Race x Health
In December a court ruled that air pollution made a material contribution to the death of 9-year old Ella Kissi-Debrah, marking her the first person in the UK to have air pollution as their cause of death. This is technically game changing, creating the road for health and environmental justice.
An Anti-Racist Approach To Covid-Rehab
Anti-racism is structured as a deliberate framework and set of clear actions to provide equitable opportunities for all people on an individual and systemic level.
