Week 1

College 1.

Artikel 1. Frumkin H. (2003). Healthy places: exploring the evidence.

Abstract
- The health impact of place includes physical, psychological, social, spiritual and
aesthetic outcomes.
- Sense of place is an public health construct
- Veel plekken worden gezien als ‘good’ places, maar hier zijn (nog) geen standaard
empirische bewijzen voor.
- Four aspects of the built environment (nature contact, buildings, public spaces, urban
form) are promising for public health research.

- Sense of place: the atmosphere of a place, the quality of its environment. This
matters because “we recognize that certain localities have an attraction which gives
us a certain indefinable sense of well-being and
- Features of place affect us in different ways:
- We gain spatial orientation form space cues (gevoel van waar we zijn en hoe
we ergens komen)
- Evoke emotions and memories
- Some spaces have spiritual resonance: religion spaces
- Affects our performance as we work and study
- Helps us connect with other people
- Enhance wellbeing, promote good health.
- The qualities of a place—and its potential impact on health—represent more than its
physical features. Place is also a social construct.
- karakter van een plaats is een functie van fysieke kwaliteit, het is ook een
product van… We learn to act in specific ways in certain places. Our actions
in various places are conditioned by a number of factors, all of which may
operate on the individual to affect not only their behaviour, but also their
heath.
- A person’s “place in the world,” including socioeconomic status, sense of
efficacy and opportunity, and cultural heritage, affects the experience of
place.
- A understanding of the affect of places on people requires an
understanding of human variability → mensen zijn
heterogeneous en reageren anders op plekken.

, - Public health heeft altijd gekeken naar veiligheid. Maar hoe zit het met de
doeltreffendheid/werkzaamheid van de omgeving? (efficacy?)

The evidence of good places: where do guidelines for good places originate from?
- Some appear as ex cathedra pronouncements: author declare what works, what is
nice. Much of the literature in architecture, arts and design use this approach.
- emerge out of deductive inference: Bv. Feng Shui. Many recommendations have
flowed directly from the conviction that nature contact must be a good thing.
- Some emerge form qualitative observational research. Observers noted patterns that
seemed to function well. Voor aanbeveling voor het bouwen van urban design.
- Empirical studies of stated preference. The general features of preferred places that
emerge include spatial definition, coherence, legibility, and mystery (the promise of
learning more through exploration). bv. balance of tress, clear borders.
- Finally, empirical research has demonstrated associations between certain aspects
of place and behavioral and health outcomes.

Verschil tussen uitdagingen van nu en van vroeger: a place for place in public health:
- built environment is more complex: more material. In some way, technical advances
have reduced health risk (bv indoor air nu schoner). Maar nieuwe risico’s moeten
beter omschreven worden.
- Second, in a highly mobile society, traditional links to place may be weakened. If a
“sense of place” has benefits for health and well-being, then understanding how to
design for it may have real public health value.
- Ten derde, zijn veel aspecten van bouwen, designen nu gereguleerd. Dit vereist dat
bewijs over hoe plekken gezondheid beïnvloeden beter gemeten moeten worden.
- Elektronische com. zorgt ervoor dat deze info goed beschikbaar is en op grote
schaal.

Research on place and health
- Nature contact can improve health: dit heeft veel implicaties voor het ontwerp van
gebouwen. Vragen; wat voor soort natuur, wat voor soort contact?
- Buildings: belangrijke designs strategie hierbij zijn bijvoorbeeld goede luchtcirculatie.
However, broader public health considerations apply as well:
- Green building: gericht op omgeving duurzaamheid kan public
health voordelen opleveren. Bv. duurzaam hout gebruiken → reduce
deforestation → slowing climate change.
- Sommige aspecten (bv. fysieke activiteit is goed voor je, maar toch liften
gebruiken) worden niet direct herkend als goed voor de gezondheid). Ook
met lichten.
- Public places: vooral gericht op sociale interactie en fysieke activiteit. Denk aan
straten en parken. Veel onduidelijk nog.
- Urban form: Urban form results from design, transportation, and land use decisions
at a larger scale than buildings and public places. De auto, migratie naar suburbs
heeft geleid tot urban sprawl. (= lage werknemers dichtheid, weinig sociale cohesie,
veel gebruik van de auto, veel apart gebruik van land: housing, employment.)(dit
leidde tot veel verlaten plekken die er gevaarlijk uitzagen).
- Onderzoek wijst uit dat dit land gebruik en transport gezondheidsgevolgen
hebben: air pollution, afname fysieke activiteit, verhoogd risico op auto

, ongelukken).




Artikel 2. Barton, H. & Grant, M. (2013). Urban Planning for Healthy Cities.

Abstract
- Doel paper: evalueren van de progressie gemaakt door Europese steden met
betrekking tot de HUP: healthy urban planning.
- Identifying three levels/phases of health and planning integration.
- The number of cities achieving a good level of understanding and activity in HUP
has risen very substantially over the period. In particular, those achieving effective
strategic integration of health and planning have increased. A key challenge for the
future will be to develop planning frameworks which advance public health concerns
in a spatial policy context driven often by market forces. A health in all policies
approach could be valuable.

Introduction
- What is the essence of town planning? it is about human health, and planning human
settlements which offer the best opportunity for people now and in the future to enjoy
good quality of life.
- Health policy is become central to many aspects of national and local policies.
- This paper outlines the context for the range of issues that should be addressed in
planning and their organisational implications, leading to criteria for evaluation of
progress in Healthy Urban Planning (HUP).

Urban planning as a determinant of health
- Het effect van een plek op de gezondheid is erkend als een
gezondheidsdeterminant. Concept voor beleid.
- Vaak hebben gedragsinterventie op individuen niet veel nut. Een
fundamentele verandering in sociale, economische en omgeving opzicht is
nodig → fysieke ontwikkeling. →
Herdefiniëren van de rol van
planning en design voor de
gezondheid.
- Evidence shows that spatial planning, or
‘urban planning, in our towns and cities
has a profound effect on the risks and
challenges to population health. The
broad nature of multiple impacts of human
settlement form on health has been
described in a settlement health map
(Figure 1).
