What's been happening: UD/MH launch this week

7/10/2015

 
It has been a very exciting week for UD/MH. Tuesday was our grand launch and very first interdisciplinary dialogue. We were delighted with the turn out at the British Embassy - architects, urban planners, physicians, policymakers, epidemiologists, artists, mental health advocates, and many others turned out to drink wine, eat cheese, and engage in vigorous interdisciplinary debate: how can we design better mental health into our cities? Read all about it (and see some photos) here. We are hoping to get the video up next week. Plus, Layla McCay was interviewed for Cities Today, and wrote about mHealth, urban design and mental health for TechChange , while active transport guru Chris Hamilton published a version of his UD/MH launch presentation on Mobility Lab.
