Join us at the Healthy City Conference
Get ready to be a part of the future of healthy urban living! We’re thrilled to invite you to the Healthy City Conference, a dynamic event co-organised by The Resilient Delta Initiative and Healthy Neighbourhoods. Join us on Tuesday, April 18th, at the iconic Sparta Stadium in Rotterdam for a day of collaboration, innovation, and inspiration.
This conference is a unique opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals from a variety of backgrounds, including healthcare, sociology, urban planning, and industrial design. Our mission is to bring together groups, organisations, and projects to explore solutions for health inequalities and to create a more comprehensive understanding of health-related research in the city. Let’s come together and envision a healthy, vibrant future for our communities.
The day’s purpose is to create a space where participants can exchange knowledge and get excited to start new projects. We’ve also invited inspiring speakers, and various workshops and presentations will serve as venues for discussions. The day will end with a networking event, providing a great opportunity to connect with fellow professionals in the field.
