Research for city practice: urban environments at the frontline of climate breakdown and health
Other text in scientific journal, 2025

SUPPORTING CITY KNOW HOW: This article comprises eighteen ‘City Know-how’ briefings. Each designed to translate research findings into actionable insights for practitioners and communities who want to support urban health. Their purpose is to support the flow of knowledge for more effective action to promote and build health while reducing risks for human and planetary health. We hope they will foster connections and conversations between researchers, practitioners, policy-makers, communities, and decision-makers in cities. Cities & Health, together with our ‘City Know-how’ partner, Building Health Lab, and our four global knowledge partners; invite communities, researchers, practitioners, and policy-makers to join our networks and contribute to the dialogue. You can access our interactive platform for ‘City Know-hows’ at www.cityknow-how.com.
