 se of chronic diseases coupled with rapid urbanisation presents both chall
 enges and opportunities for cities around the world. However\, much of the
  contemporary urban planning paradigm still rely on top-down approaches to
  urban development focused on automobility. A more integrated approach to 
 urban and transport planning that supports human-scale urban development i
 s needed. This requires collecting and analysing vast amounts of big data 
 while integrating more nuanced and contextualised information about human 
 behaviours and risk factors.\n\nIn this talk\, I will discuss some of the 
 key health challenges linked to urban and transport planning\, and share l
 essons and experiences from my research to support and guide local decisio
 ns and investments to make healthy cities from the bottom up.
