The article presents a discussion on the relationship between urban mobility and health. A qualitative methodology was used to understand perceptions and representations of the concept of active city and promotion of quality of life in the constitution of a healthy city. A content analysis of the transcripts of 31 semi-structured interviews was carried out. The planning and design of public policies have an impact on the spatial quality of cities by promoting active mobility, which plays an important role in the population’s health. Integrated planning enables the development of plans focused on quality of life and urban vitality, reorienting the logic of urban mobility. Combined with urban greenery and more humanized spaces, quality of life and health promotion can be activated
