Healthy Communities and Planning for a Sustainable Greater Toronto Area - A Call to Action

OPPI calls upon planners and other stakeholders to foster a healthy and sustainable Greater Toronto Area that enhances social well-being and is economically sound.

To achieve healthy communities and sustainable city regions there needs to be a balance between nature and human development. A truly functional, sustainable, livable and healthy city region integrates and complements the natural environment. This reduces the environmental impact while also helping to promote physical activity, psychological well-being and healthier outcomes for all community members.
