| Summary: | Sustainable Urban Development is a world-class policy goal, increasingly assuming multisectoral and multilevel principles. These principles, together with a collaborative and participatory approach, are also at the heart of the Healthy City movement promoted by the World Health Organization (WHO). In this context, the Healthy Cities Project (HCP) stands out as a mechanism to operationalize this movement. Having the Lisbon Metropolitan Area as a study area, it is discussed whether urban mobility oriented to Healthy Cities is a reality, considering the interventions and visions of the HCP teams and the transportation and mobility departments. Methodology combines the collection, analysis and systematization of secondary information on the interventions and the systematization and analysis of the content of the speeches of the interviewed agents. There was therefore some divergence between the initiatives carried out by the two types of agents covered in the study - PCS teams and transport and mobility departments - which respond positively to the relationship between urban mobility and healthy cities, albeit in a differentiated way, and the discourses of these same agents, where this relationship is not considered as one of the most relevant due to limitations of competences or resources or considered officially non-existent but implicitly and non-formally present in their speeches. |
