dc.description.abstract | The Urban Health Symposium in Dhaka (2013) provided a platform for international, national and regional policy makers, practitioners, engineers and academics to exchange ideas and explore avenues to improve the state of urban health in Bangladesh. Health challenges include historically critical areas, such as infectious disease control and environmental health and nutrition, as well as “newer” problems, such as Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs). The Symposium’s ‘call to action’ builds on Bangladesh’s advantages and begins to chip away at the challenges. Priority actions require different levels of collaboration between vertical ministries for which institutional structures and mechanisms do not yet exist. | en |
