Glasgow's Healthier Future Forum 16

The 16th Healthier Future Forum focused on active travel and physical activity within an urban environment. 

Active travel is an important cross-cutting issue which is relevant to policy on health improvement, air quality, sustainability and climate change, and also to how our cities develop in the 21^st century.

Alasdair MacDonald, Sustrans chaired the event, which opened with an address from Maureen Watt, Minister for Public Health. A keynote address followed from John Lauder, Director, Sustrans and a presentation from Bruce Whyte, Glasgow Centre for Population Health. The latter part of the morning included pop-up presentations, round table discussion and feedback to allow the opportunity for further comment and more in-depth discussion. Duncan Booker, Glasgow City Council summed up and closed the event.
