About Urban Structure
The wellbeing of people in cities is dependent to a large degree on the urban structure. Access to clean water, sanitation, safe travel opportunities, open public spaces, safe and nutritious food and so on are all critical to urban life. Transport cannot be addressed in isolation from the urban form, as cities that by design require people to travel long distances will inherently make it more difficult to reduce congestion.
Public spaces play an important role in urban settings. They give us the opportunity for developing mental and physical health. Along with opportunities for physical activity, public spaces give us chances to socialize, interact and communicate with friends and promote social cohesion.
Along with parks and playgrounds, local public markets are key public spaces, as well as a good source of accessing healthy food. Nowadays people are more concerned about food safety. Farmer’s market is one of the platforms, which will fulfil the demand of both producers and consumers. In farmer’s market, local farmers will have access to sell their fresh and safe produce and city people will get the chance to buy fresh foods without having any worries about chemicals.
WBB seeks to promote a positive approach to urban planning that reduces the need for travel and increases opportunities for social interaction, access to safe and nutritious diet while also addressing other basic needs of urban dwellers.
