Urban planning and related professions play an important role in shaping those conditions. Healthy Cities and the City Planning process is a background paper supporting the developmental work of the WHO Healthy Cities project on the subject of “Healthy Urban Planning”. The paper explores and analyses the relationship between urban planning and public health in terms of history and current issues in cities. It puts forward new approaches to develop healthy urban planning practices, and cities examples from across Europe and North America.
