영문 초록

Urban is an important determinant of health and health is analyzed and problems are solved through lens of urban in urban health. Since various stakeholders from multi-levels and multi-sectors are involved, urban health is intrinsically complex. In order to deal with the complexity of urban health, systems approach is needed. Urban health emerged with the efforts of improving the miserable situation of the urban poor in the late 19th century, which, however, was suppressed by biomedical model of health. As urbanization began in mid 20th century, various international agencies, philanthropic institutes, and academic societies came into play in urban health. Climate change and COVID-19 pandemic have greatly impacted urban health. Although the importance of urban health is well-noticed, urban health research has not gained much political supports and we discussed six reasons why. Finally, we suggested the role of Academy of Urban Health in urban health research in 3 ways. First, the Academy should be a venue of intellectual collaboration among scholars of different expertise and backgrounds. Second, priority research agenda in urban health need to be addressed. Third, urban health education needs to be developed.
