E01 - The City Health and Wellbeing Initiative

A city provides opportunities for education, jobs and health care, for example, but is that all there is to a good life? Can good health and well being coexist with economic and business opportunities that are also people-centric, liveable, equitable, sociable, and, maybe even, enjoyable? This is the central question that the folks at SEI (Stockholm Environment Institute), have been poring over. And this is exactly what this podcast called the City Health and Wellbeing podcast intends to understand and share with you. Vishal Mehta, a Senior Scientist at SEI, working in their Davis, California office, who has actually worked on the City Health and Wellbeing Initiative hosts the podcast, and Gokul Chakravarthy is its producer. In this first episode of the City Health and Wellbeing podcast, Vishal is joined by Steve Cinderby from SEI's York centre in the UK.
