1. Promote urban planning for health behaviors and safety

Urban planning can promote healthy behaviors and safety in many different ways, applicable both to existing and new areas. These would include design for physical activity in cities, where healthy food is available, safe, accessible and affordable, where health services for all are provided and where roads are safe.

Concrete and feasible actions that can be taken include:

  •  Design cities to promote physical activity
  •  Make healthy food available, safe, and affordable
  •  Provide adequate health services for all
  •  Improve road safety
