📣 New paper is out today! We study how computer vision and time-lapsed, street-view images estimate air and noise pollution in cities like Accra, Ghana… and when it can’t. Check out our paper in STOTEN: doi.org/10.1016/j.scit… #computervision #pollution #cities #Africa

With high density of population in Urban areas, a small area level poverty estimation is necessary in designing Health and Development interventions.

Hear about the great research Honor Bixby Emily Gemmell Emily Muller Jacob Doku Tetteh Sierra Clark Alicia Cavanaugh allisarah and others from the Pathways team have done in contexts with few direct measurements outcomes of #environmental #health Imperial School of Public Health

Our latest blog post by Alicia Cavanaugh and Ricky Nathvani 🥑🔰 🏙️ recounting the Pathways session and experience engaging with the larger community at the International Conference on Urban Health this past November! #ICUH22 ISUH 🌳🏘 equitablehealthycities.org/blog/icuh-conf…

I don't know if you all remember the 'I Voted' sticker design contest for Ulster County that went viral and the internet all voted for this design but...it really did win, and they are using it for the current election: dailyfreeman.com/2022/10/30/ear…

Sierra Clark presents on the why and how of sensor network operation and data for mapping air and noise pollution, with lessons learned from Pathways to Equitable Healthy Cities work in Accra, Ghana  #PathwaysICUH #ICUH22

#Poverty mapping helps local communities understand where they lie in relation to their neighbors. Up to #date estimates can help local authorities advocate for more resources to address deprivation #PathwaysICUH

Communities are not necessarily deprived in every dimension. Mapping multiple inequalities can reveal areas that experience multiple deprivations, or highlight singularly acute issue in particular areas. Work by Jacob Doku Tetteh!

Despite data limitations we use indirect estimation techniques to show to show different facets of deprivation in #Accra –economic status, child mortality, and water access #UrbanHealth

At #ICUH22 today? Come see the Pathways to Equitable Healthy Cities Workshop on Data Equity at 11:30 in Salón de Actos in La Pextina!

We are very excited for our workshop next Monday 24th October at the #ICUH22 Conference 🏙 Come hear us speak about Data and Data analytics for measuring Urban Inequalities!

We will be presenting at 11.30 CET, in the Salón de Actos in La Petxina. #PathwaysICUH ISUH

Teen girls' needs and behaviours have not been considered in many of our built environments, making them feel less secure in public space. They are neither children nor adults meaning they have specific needs and behaviours different from both these groups womeninurbanism.ca/words/how-to-b…

My girl Melissa Ward Jones just co-wrote an article on the challenges (and joys?) of field-work while raising kids ! nature.com/articles/d4158…

Really proud to share our nature article with @MetteBendixen08 advocating for more support and sharing tips for scientist parents who do fieldwork UA Fairbanks

Very happy to share a paper co-written with Sarah Moser about Morocco's ambitious national city-building strategy where we unpack the consequences of forms of inherent ambiguity in the ‘cohesive’ national strategy sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
