Today, cities are the dominant human habitat, where a large number of environmental, social, cultural and economic factors have impacts on human health and wellbeing. Cities consist of complex, dynamic, socio-ecological, and technological systems that serve multiple functions in human health and wellbeing. Currently half of Asia?s population is urban, and that figure is expected to rise to 66 percent by 2050. Since urban areas are often most vulnerable to hazards, the people living in them need good health infrastructure facilities and technological support at various scales. As such, the need of the hour is to enhance the adaptive capacity, strengthen resilience, reduce vulnerability, and take risk mitigation measures in urban areas, which requires a systematic approach based on science?policy interface that is transformative, trans-disciplinary and integrative for a sustainable urban future. Global sustainable development goals are closely tied to urban human health and wellbeing: (1) the third of the United Nations? Sustainable Development Goals is to ?Ensure healthy lives and promote wellbeing for all at all ages? and (2) the eleventh is to ?Make cities inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable?. By addressing these goals, this book offers a highly useful resource for anyone concerned with healthy and resilient cities in Asia, today and tomorrow. 410 0$aAdvances in Geographical and Environmental Sciences,$x2198-3542 606 $aMedical geography 606 $aClimate change 606 $aUrban geography 606 $aEconomic development 606 $aPhysical geography 606 $aMedical Geography$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J21000 606 $aClimate Change/Climate Change Impacts$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/313000 606 $aUrban Geography / Urbanism (inc. megacities, cities, towns)$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J15010 606 $aDevelopment and Health$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/913060 606 $aWorld Regional Geography (Continents, Countries, Regions)$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J19000 615 0$aMedical geography. 615 0$aClimate change. 615 0$aUrban geography. 615 0$aEconomic development. 615 0$aPhysical geography. 615 14$aMedical Geography. 615 24$aClimate Change/Climate Change Impacts. 615 24$aUrban Geography / Urbanism (inc. megacities, cities, towns). 615 24$aDevelopment and Health. 615 24$aWorld Regional Geography (Continents, Countries, Regions). 676 $a362.1042 702 $aSingh$b R.B$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aSrinagesh$b Bathula$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aAnand$b Subhash$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910392719303321 996 $aUrban Health Risk and Resilience in Asian Cities$92169054 997 $aUNINA
