LKYCIC Seminar Series: “The Healthy City: A Playbook for Singapore”

The Healthy City project bridges the disciplines of urban health and planning through a structured three-step framework: (1) Urban analytics to identify gaps and opportunities in the built environment; (2) Digital tools, such as behavioral nudging, to promote healthier commuting choices; and (3) Data-driven urban design to reimagine neighborhoods that support active lifestyles. Focused on quantifying health outcomes from Walk-Cycle-Ride (WCR) modes and access to amenities like parks and transit, the project prioritizes inclusivity and sustainability. Through a combination of location intelligence and behavioral strategies, The Healthy City aims to cultivate equitable communities that advance well-being, mobility, and overall urban livability.
