Abstract
This is the sixth in the series of City Health Conferences. It is hosted by the University of Applied Sciences and Arts Northwestern Switzerland and organized by «Knowledge Action Change». Empowerment, Engagement and Partnership: participating to develop healthy cities reflects the belief that measures and actions for health promotion and urban development are more effective if the affected populations play an active and co-decisive role in the process of design, development and delivery. Evidence demonstrates that such engagement and participation contributes to sustainable solutions, to a greater identification with urban public space and increased intergenerational communication. This is an inclusive conference, with presenters and participants including NGOs, community projects, advocacy groups, as well as urban and health planners, academics, policy makers and those who deliver services and interventions.
