Health and Places Initiative (HAPI)

Overview

This project investigates how to create healthier cities in the future, with a specific emphasis on China.

Bringing together experts from the Harvard Graduate School of Design (HGSD) and the Harvard School of Public Health (HSPH), it creates a forum for understanding the multiple issues that face cities in light of rapid urbanization and an aging population worldwide.

It has three main components:

  • Education
  • Research on healthier places
  • A forum for further work on the connections between built environments and public health
