Transportation is an integral part of our daily lives, giving us access to people, education, jobs, services, and goods. Our transportation choices and behaviours are influenced by four interrelated factors: the land use and built environment, infrastructure, available modes, and emerging technologies\/disruptors. These factors influence how we move ourselves and goods, and are modifiable. In turn, these factors impact various exposures, lifestyles and health outcomes. Understanding how transportation can be both beneficial and detrimental to health is crucial for policy- and decision-makers aiming to prioritize and improve public health in their cities.<\/p>\n

This webinar will:<\/b><\/p>\n

    \n
  • Summarize pathways that link transportation to health<\/li>\n
  • Review how pathways between transportation and health intersect with equity<\/li>\n
  • Show quantitative health impact assessments of these pathways from cities across the world<\/li>\n
  • Overview data and methodological gaps in health impact assessments of transportation decisions<\/li>\n
  • Discuss how understanding the pathways, health impacts and co-benefits can inform decision making about transportation and public health<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Haneen Khreis is a Senior Research Associate in the MRC Epidemiology Unit at the University of Cambridge and is an Associate Scientist with the Texas A&M Transportation Institute. She is a cross-disciplinary researcher broadly studying the health impacts of transport planning and policy with a special interest in cities. She is trained in transport planning and engineering, vehicle emissions and air quality monitoring and modelling, systematic reviews, health impact and burden of disease assessment. She also has expertise in policy options generation and the science-policy link. Haneen has worked extensively with air pollution and asthma in particular, doing epidemiological, burden of disease assessment and monetization studies.<\/p>\n

    She has published over 70 peer-reviewed papers, chapters and technical reports, with a large media impact, and edited three books on integrating human health into planning, transport and health, and traffic-related air pollution and health. Haneen recently developed a cross-disciplinary course titled \u201cTraffic-Related Air Pollution: Emissions, Human Exposures, and Health.\u201d. She is dedicated to improving human health and equity through supporting relevant education, workforce development, and evidence-based healthy and just planning.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
