摘要

Many health planners, local bodies and general literate people see urbanpopulation as one unit of literate, financially sound and well informedpopulation, seeking health care when needed; Health infrastructure is morethan required. Cumulative data is the reason for this misconception while theactual situation among urban poor may be worse than their rural counterparts.Urban health would make the biggest impact in global health and is also themost challenging particularly taking care of the population at highest risk.Government influences the health of urban populations by providing municipalservices, regulating activities that affect health, and setting the parameters forurban development. Government policies can exacerbate or reduce socialinequality and support living conditions that promote or damage health. Government activities in manysectors affect health, including those in public education, public transportation, public safety, criminal justice,welfare, housing, and employment.City governments and urban populations have limited resources to face multiple problems (e.g., in education,employment, crime prevention, environmental protection, and sanitation). Investment in these areas will bekey to improving the health of populations. The priority for municipal governments to demonstrate inter--sectoral approaches within their agencies and to assemble the coalitions and political support needed tosustain their interventions becomes essential. Urban public health planners need to define disparity reductionas an explicit goal.
