Healthy Urban Living

This is the collection of the student Living Lab Project of Healthy Urban Living. This is a project for the Living Lab course of the Msc MADE.

As cities are continuing to densify and include more functions, ‘healthy urban living' (HUL) is currently a trending topic and will be increasingly in the future. HUL is about creating clean, safe, comfortable, sustainable, and wealthy living environments, where people live together socially, independently, and healthy. Currently, in the Netherlands, several parties are developing a dashboard that monitors HUL, to help cities and their local policymakers, urban planners, or project developers in decision-making processes. Monitoring HUL could help these decision-makers in targeting specific points of attention in an area and can contribute to better site-specific designs. Therefore, monitoring HUL can improve living urban environments in such a way that it contributes to people’s health. The Data Knowledge Hub on HUL (DKH GSL) initiated this living lab to gain more knowledge on the monitoring of HUL. The DKH (DKH GSL) is an independent and open source network initiated by a total of 12 parties, both public and private actors. The parties strive to create solutions for healthy urban living environments. This living lab took place in the Kolenkitbuurt in Amsterdam.
