As part of the SALURBAL project, researchers at the Dornsife School of Public Health at Drexel University and partners throughout Latin America and the U.S. will study how urban environments and policies impact the health of city residents throughout Latin America. Their findings will inform policies and interventions to create healthier, more equitable, and more sustainable cities worldwide.
