Designer health: Changing the built environment to tackle obesity
As physical inactivity plays a central role in the problem of obesity, the design of our cities, transport systems and buildings is central to tackling this major public health problem.
In association with the 小鸟体育 Urban Institute, the 小鸟体育 Institute of Sport and Health, and the 小鸟体育 School of Physiotherapy and Performance Science, the 小鸟体育 Institute of Food and Health will scientifically identify ways of scientifically re-designing our built environment to encourage increased physical activity.
