'Obsessively collaborative, laser focussed on equity, prepared to act at different levels'. Well said @peterbabudu. We need to be bold, think big and be flexible about sectors, roles and ways of working to crack health equity. @rhiannoncor @robtabbw@ImpUrbanHealth#HCD2023
A big thank you to everybody that said hello to the @ImpUrbanHealth team at #HCD2023. 🙌🏿
This year’s @HCDCongress was an inspiring meeting of minds that we are proud to support.
My main takeaway: being obsessively collaborative is key to delivering healthier cities 1/3

Great first day at #HCD2023 – insightful and incisive talks on how we can make cities healthier places to grow, work, and live. We’re delighted to be part of the wide range of voices collaborating for the future health of our urban spaces. 🌿
These conversations on building trust, working *with* communities not for, embedding equity across work, etc. are prompting me to share the work of our partner @centricmoments on centring community voice in research approaches @ImpUrbanHealth https://t.co/ZkDrHDxY11
'Communities should be at the heart of the public health issue that you are trying to change.'
'Multiple perspectives and honest conversations with trusted local leaders is important.'
@DPH_MAshton, @lpoolcouncil during an excellent panel discussion at @HCDCongress
Excellent talk by @NathalieRoebbel@HCDCongress on @WHO strategic guide for urban health - a systemic approach highlighting the importance of #healthequity. 4 key action areas:evidence, governance & finance, partnership & participation and innovation. Strengthening capacities
Brilliant talks to start this year's Congress with a stark reminder about widening gap in healthy life expectancy between wealthy + deprived areas. Look forward to @MichaelMarmot publication on racism and health inequalities, v relevant to our work @ImpUrbanHealth
