Cities have a profound power to support or hinder human health and wellbeing in countless ways. Achieving greater health equity has emerged in recent years as a key priority and consideration when designing cities to promote health and wellbeing, although there is a dearth of evidence and practical examples of research translation to guide cities and communities. The book accordingly exemplifies a pluralistic approach to achieving urban health equity which recognises and addresses critical aspects of geography, age, race, background, socioeconomic status, disability, gender etc. With interdisciplinary science clearly pointing to the role of the neighbourhood environment as one of the most important health determinants, this book will undoubtedly lead the next generation of urban health actors to build contextually responsive, equitable, empathic cities to benefit residents around the world. The book, rather than being focused purely on academic propositions for building equitable cities, offers a unique multi-stakeholder perspective by collaborating with the International Society for Urban Health¿s 18th International Conference on Urban Health. This unique collaboration allows access to hundreds of scientists, architects, urbanists, multilaterals, policymakers, non-profit leaders, and grassroots organizers. The book captures the voices and concerns of such diverse cross-sectoral professionals and showcases findings that turn evidence into action and impact in communities around the world.

Dr. Nimish Biloria has multiple years of experience in transdisciplinary innovation within the sectors of urban science, architecture, and interaction design across Europe, Asia, and Australia. After working at one of the world's premier institutes for Architecture, the Delft University of Technology, the Netherlands, he is currently working at the University of Technology Sydney (UTS) as an Associate Professor. His area of research is Empathic Environments and it involves the study of human-environment interaction with its underpinnings in Architecture, Urban Science, Human Behavior, and Human-Computer Interaction. Under this research umbrella, he has amassed extensive research and design experience in leading multi-scalar transdisciplinary projects spanning the areas of Architecture, Smart Cities, Urban Informatics, Sustainable Mobility, Social Robotics, and Tangible and Embedded Interaction with a primary focus on enhancing human health and wellbeing.
Giselle Sebag, MPH, LEED AP ND is a high-impact, strategic leader with more than 15 years of experience in designing, managing, and guiding multidisciplinary urban health and development initiatives worldwide.
