Title: Designing Healthy Built Environments Series: CDPAC/PHAC 2016-2017 Webinar Series Date: November 17th 2016 Webpage: http://www.cdpac.ca/content.php?doc=351 Description: This webinar was part of a series of webinars co-hosted by the Chronic Disease Prevention Alliance of Canada (CDPAC) and the Public Health Agency of Canada’s (PHAC) Centre for Chronic Disease Prevention. The webinar began with a brief description of how the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) is contributing, alongside other important partners, to addressing the built environment through its Multi-sectoral Partnerships to Promote Healthy Living and Prevent Chronic Disease Program, highlighting two recently funded interventions that are aiming to improve healthy living outcomes of residents in urban settings by transforming elements of the built environment. Following this, Professor Colin Ellard, a cognitive neuroscientist and director of the Urban Realities Laboratory at the University of Waterloo, spoke about the psychology of urban and architectural design. Specifically, he described some of the methods he is using to measure how pedestrians respond both emotionally and physiologically to different urban environments based on field studies that his team has conducted.
