This issue introduces the topic and identifies the challenges for public health workers and their counterparts in urban management (urban, transport and social planners, environmental engineers and auditors, sustainability officers and others) and the land development and infrastructure sectors of industry. The second issue will focus on ways to move forward by describing urban planning and design approaches to enhance population health.
