Lifelong learning for health as a key to building sustainable, equitable, inclusive and resilient citiesProfessor Didier Jourdan attended the "Fifth International Conference on Learning Cities" held in Yeonsu, South Korea from October 27 to 30 this year. The aim was to discuss how cities can promote health education and contribute to emergency responses, such as those implemented during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Professor Jourdan recalled the central role of lifelong learning for health in building healthy, equitable, inclusive, sustainable and resilient cities. The health crisis has served as an eye-opener on the challenges of lifelong learning for health and well-being issues. It reminded us that we cannot make people healthy without them or against them.
