內容大綱
One of the iconic developments of the 21st century is the growth of cities: by 2050, the number of citizens living in urban areas is expected to exceed 75 per cent-up from 53 per cent today. The implications are varied, and the authors look at them through a health lens. They describe five key aspects of urban life that must be carefully considered if people are to thrive in the world's cities. These include 'the primary education of girls' and 'commercial innovation capacity'. They then describe the ISO-approved framework developed by the World Council on City Data, which one of the authors heads up, which ranks the world's cities on a number of key elements of overall population health-including issues around water and sanitation and environmental safety. Going forward, they argue, this framework will allow for comparisons between the world's cities-and targeted responses.
