Ministry of Housing, Communities & Local Government Policy Fellowship

Project Details

Description

As part of the fellowship, I will be seconded to the Ministry of Housing, Communities & Local Government to work on the relationship between urban development and health and wellbeing. Urban planning’s role in promoting health and addressing disparities is of paramount importance. With a rising emphasis on prevention, health creation, and health inequalities in our national discourse, this fellowship offers a unique platform to delve deeper into these areas in collaboration with national policy communities. This secondment will allow me to bridge academic insights with the nuances of policy-making and contribute to the evolving dialogue on how our built environment impacts our health.
