The Healthy Cities Generator is a freely available digital tool, designed to make it easy for urban planners, health professionals and policy makers to incorporate health factors into urban planning and urban factors into health policy. During HORUS, this practical, evidence-based tool, will support key stakeholders to understand the health impact of urban planning, and see how small adjustments could make a big difference to the lives of local people.
From the planning perspective, the user can evaluate the characteristics of an existing area, and immediately visualise the specific health effects on 30 health indicators (physical, mental & environmental health). For health, the tool includes an assessment to help citizens and practitioners understand their areas’ strengths and weaknesses, and guides the user to planning & social actions that will improve their health results.
