We have gathered examples that demonstrate tried-and-tested ways of incorporating physical activity, and urban design & city planning through placemaking.

For this purpose we have reviewed and analysed:

• urban design publications
• existing placemaking resources, tools, processes, and products linked to the redesign and creation of new urban spaces that are inviting people to be active
• Global Health Enhancing Physical Activity Campaigns

We motivate you to take these learnings forward into your own work in a public space to bring about more active and connected communities.
