On Friday 9th October, Public Health and the NZ Centre for Sustainable Cities hosted the seminar Creating healthy, just and eco-sensitive cities.
Tony Capon – professor with the National Centre for Epidemiology and Population Health at Australian National University and convenes the Australian Climate Change Adaptation Research Network for Human Health.
The health, social and environmental consequences of the current pattern of urban development in Australiaprovide a compelling rationale for a re-think of the way we are developing our cities. This seminar will examine the Australian urban health challenge and explore efforts by public health workers, urbanists and others to respond in the interest of the health of people and planet.
