Toward Health-Centered Monitoring framework promoting Well-Being and Nature-based Solutions

Global geopolitical, economical, climate changes consist a major challenge for European and international cities. As a result, these cities produce inequalities in health, due to several factors such as living conditions, health-related behaviour, education, occupation and income. Therefore, urban areas are under huge pressure to enhance policies in order to become more sustainable and liveable, as well as to provide environments and social fabric that support Public Health (PH) and Wellbeing (WB). Our proposed framework addresses factors influencing PH and WB, provide evidence base (proven by clinical tests where appropriates) thus improve urban health and reduce health disparities through changes in individual behaviour of citizens, stimulated by different policies. Towards this direction, our framework will gather data, via technological devices, from citizens in order to identify the factors that affect PH and WB. Based on a preliminary analysis, results shown that the heartbeat, which is defined as the most important health factor, is mostly affected by Ozone (O3) and carbonate oxygen (CO). However most data were collected from grey areas leaving room for improvement.
