Abstract:

The results of many foreign studies assessing urban infrastructure indicate a significant impact of environmental elements: buildings, transport, street design, public spaces, as well as access to infrastructure resources such as healthy eating, recreation areas and places for physical activity on the health of the living population. This review focuses on the methodological approaches used in these studies to study the impact of urban infrastructures on public health. The presented examples can become an additional resource for the development of a tool for an integrated system for assessing the infrastructure of municipalities that affects the health of the population, which will allow using the evidence to make informed decisions in order to create and implement public health promotion programs and their operational management at the regional/municipal level.

Keywords:

urban infrastructure
living environment
urban planning
