20th International Conference on Urban Health
Growing Our Global Community. Driving Action. Ensuring Equity.The International Society for Urban Health (ISUH) is delighted to invite you to join our 20th International Conference on Urban Health (ICUH) taking place in Marrakesh, Morocco 18 - 21 November 2024.
There is a growing body of urban health research and evidence, yet gaps exist in knowledge generation, translation, and application for urban design and health practice. Cross-sectoral collaboration and multidisciplinary training and action are needed to better bridge disciplines and better define urban health within a global context. The ICUH serves as a key convergence point to advance and support the generation, exchange, and application of urban health programs and policies.
The theme for ICUH 2024 is A Healthier Horizon: Activating Urban Health Strategies for a Climate Resilient Future. During this year’s conference, we connect a uniquely global network of leaders working to advance urban health to discuss how urban health knowledge and approaches and can drive greater climate mitigation, adaptation and action in cities across the globe.
Join us as we unpack the mobilization of resources to support the climate and health conversation in cities, impacting urban dwellers today and for future generations.
Working with leading researchers, urban planners, private innovators, philanthropy and non-governmental and multilateral bodies, we will identify the most promising transdisciplinary solutions for tackling climate justice, addressing the mental health impacts of climate change, designing neighborhoods that mitigate and adapt to a changing climate, how health systems impacts climate change, and other pressing global challenges related to climate change impacts on health and wellbeing in cities.
