Research for city practice

SUPPORTING CITY KNOW-HOW Human health and planetary health are influenced by city lifestyles, city leadership, and city development. For both, worrying trends have lead to increasing concern, and it is imperative that these become core foci for urban policy. This will require concerted action; the journal Cities & Health is dedicated to supporting the flow of knowledge, in all directions, to help make this happen. We wish to foster communication between researchers, practitioners, policy-makers, communities, and decision-makers in cities. This is the core purpose of the City Know-how section of the journal. We, and our knowledge partners, the International Society for Urban Health and Salus.Global invite you to join these conversations with the authors and communities directly, and also we hope by publishing in Cities & Health.
