Creating Healthy Communities with Stickier Designs Health promoters have realized that simply telling people to exercise more has been ineffective. But we can build communities where functional physical activities such as walking, bicycling, and transit use are a more routine part of daily life. This thought provoking presentation will connect policy and environmental approaches such as updated zoning ordinances and Complete Streets policies with the triple bottom line benefits of economic vibrancy, environmental sustainability, and public health.
