How healthy is your neighborhood? | Cities are more than just buildings. They shape how we live, feel, and connect. A healthy city offers clean air, safe transportation, green spaces, and opportunities for social interaction. Yet, as urban areas expand, these qualities come under pressure.
By 2050, nearly 70% of the world’s population will live in cities, facing increased noise, pollution, inequality, and stress. To address these challenges,the municipality of Eindhoven and Eindhoven Engine supported the EngD research project by Golnoosh Sabahifard exploring innovative ways to better understand and improve urban well-being.
