UrbanBetter is a learning collaborative, advocacy platform and practice. We equip, connect and mobilise individuals, communities and organisations for healthy sustainable urban environments. 

VISION URBANBETTER:

By 2030, every large urban infrastructure initiative in UrbanBetter cities across Africa will design health and climate resilience into urban infrastructure planning and development.

By 2063, (re)-visioning of cities will have, at its core, participatory mechanisms to support intergenerational decision making for climate resilient, healthy communities.


OUR THREE PILLARS:

1. UrbanBetter Cityzens: Precision approach to advocacy and activism harnessing the power of youth, the vitality of physical activity and the potential of citizen science and digital technology for better cities. Through Cityzens Hubs, we provide Cityzen-sensing data infrastructure to support youth-led participatory measurement and action for healthy climate-resilient cities. 

2. UrbanBetter | Oni et al: Urban health and science diplomacy practice leveraging participatory infrastructure and evidence to support organisations with (local to global) multisectoral coalition-building and community engagement & dialogue to integrate health and climate-resilience  into decisions and investments that influence urban systems and environments.

3. UrbanBetter Academy: University-based, participatory transdisciplinary research and training. We conduct embedded research generating urban and planetary health evidence to support healthy climate-resilient urban development. Through training, we also aim to contribute to building the next generation of (research, advocacy, policy, practice) leaders equipped to integrate health and climate change into research, action and policy for healthy sustainable urban development.
