International Urban Health Summit

The International Urban Health Summit will take place from 9 to 11 April 2025 at Herrenhausen Palace in Hanover. International experts, young scientists, political decision-makers, heads of non-governmental organisations as well as interested citizens (initiatives) and schoolchildren will come together there to engage in dialogue. The aim is to jointly discuss how the global network of national science academies can contribute to developing and implementing solutions to the challenges of urban health. Topics such as nutrition, sport, mobility, climate, mental health, architecture, art and culture and many more will be considered. The summit is part of the project "The Role of National Academies in Promoting Urban Health", a project of the Berlin-Brandenburg Academy of Sciences and Humanities (BBAW) and the Leopoldina in collaboration with the InterAcademy Partnership (IAP) and the Union of German Academies of Sciences and Humanities, supported by the Volkswagen Foundation, with input from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine.
