An interview with Steve Cinderby and Diane Archer about SEI's project, City Health and Wellbeing.
Rapidly-growing cities present unique challenges and opportunities. SEI’s Initiative on City Health and Wellbeing uses novel approaches to understand how growing cities can impact wellbeing.
"The City Health and Wellbeing Initiative, also known as ‘CHeW’, looks at how rapidly-growing cities are affecting the wellbeing of residents. We are interested in people’s quality of life and mental and physical health. We’re also looking into how well these cities are functioning and the mixture of ‘services’ they provide to residents and the wider environment, known as the ‘city system’."
