This book seeks to provide a comprehensive examination of the critical intersection between urbanization, climate change, and public health. As urban areas expand and face increasing pressures from environmental changes and population growth, there is a growing need for integrated approaches that address these intertwined challenges. This book aims to explore how urban planning, public health, and climate resilience can be aligned to create cities that are not only sustainable but also capable of supporting the well-being of their residents. Designed as a vital resource for urban planners, public health professionals, policymakers, environmentalists, and academics, this book offers insights into strategies for fostering urban environments that can adapt to climate-related challenges while enhancing public health. It covers a wide range of topics, including the design of resilient infrastructure, the creation of green spaces, sustainable urban mobility, and the role of governance and policy in promoting urban health. Additionally, this book emphasizes the importance of community engagement and ethical considerations in urban planning processes. The primary objective is to present a multidisciplinary approach to urban development that addresses the interconnected issues of climate change and public health. By integrating case studies, best practices, and innovative strategies, this book seeks to equip readers with the tools needed for informed decision-making and strategic planning. Ultimately, it aims to inspire the creation of urban spaces that are not only resilient and sustainable but also inclusive and health-promoting, ensuring that cities can thrive in the face of future challenges.
