Healthy Built Environment Linkages Toolkit

This Toolkit from the Population & Public Health team at the BC Centre for Disease Control (BCCDC) is intended to support the inclusion of health considerations within community planning and design.

It is designed as a quick reference to the body of research evidence which describes how our built environment can influence population health.
