Drexel Urban Health Collaborative at the Dornsife School of Public Health

The Drexel Urban Health Collaborative works to improve health in cities by increasing scientific knowledge and public awareness of health and health variation within cities, and by promoting urban policies and partnerships that promote health and reduce health inequalities.

The UHC builds capacity by partnering and exchanging information with:

·      Community residents, leaders, and organizations to help advocate for health promoting change in cities and neighborhoods, and 

·      Policymakers, government stakeholders and other decision makers to help inform urban policies so that they promote health and reduce health inequities.
