Research and Practice
The Urban Health Collaborative (UHC) takes a multidisciplinary, data-driven, and action-oriented approach to improving health in cities.
Our research and practice framework focuses on understanding how urban environments shape health and using that evidence to inform policy and community action.
The UHC integrates public health practice directly into our research so that studies don’t just produce knowledge—they also inform real-world action for cities. UHC researchers emphasize collaboration with practitioners, policy evaluation, and applied data tools.
