Popis: | doi: 10.12957/geouerj.2017.29735 The concept of Healthy City developed by the World Health Organization is a holistic concept which covers all determinants of health, divided by social, economic and environmental domains. In this sense, transport organization, allowing the access to workplaces, goods and services, but at the same time, is source of pollution, natural resource consuming and road accidents, elements of extreme relevance to the implementation of healthy city principles. In this paper, it is proposed the definition of an indicator system to evaluate the contribution of transport to healthy cities, recurring to available indicators in the Portuguese statistical system. This indicator system will be applied to Lisbon Metropolitan Area (Portugal), having its municipalities as units of analysis. |
