Join the Global Engagement Seminar: Finding Our Future City - Health, Housing, and Humanity on Wednesday, March 5 from 7:00-8:00PM for a talk and Q&A presentation by Tai Huynh on The Urban Determinants of Health.
Cities can be health promoting but they can also make us unwell. How they do this often isn’t very visible and goes beyond plainly obvious things like walkability or road safety. Using Toronto as a case study and drawing on his own work at The Local, Huynh will discuss the social determinants of health within the context of a dense urban setting.
Everyone is welcome - no registration required!
