Healthy people and assets

To have healthy people, we need to make sure that all residents live in neighbourhoods that support good health and wellbeing.

The Healthy City Strategy aims to improve people's health and wellbeing by addressing the social determinants of health. To do this, we need to collaborate with other levels of government, other sectors and community stakeholders.

Our assets are the unique building blocks that support healthier neighbourhoods.

Each neighbourhood in our city is unique. This mean that every neighbourhood will have a different approach to developing their healthy city assets.
