  • Urban Environments, Health, and Environmental Sustainability

    Open AccessAna V Diez Roux, Marcio Alazraqui et al.ARTICLEJournal of Urban Health2024

    Despite the relevance of cities and city policies for health, there has been limited examination of large numbers of cities aimed at characterizing urban health determinants and identifying effective policies. The relatively few comparative studies that exist include few cities in lower and middle income countries. The Salud Urbana en America Latina study (SALURBAL) was launched in 2017 to address this gap. The study has four aims: (1) to investi…
