I. Context:
The Project “Building Healthy Cities” (BHC) aims to embed a health equity lens into existing Smart
Cities in India, Indonesia, and Vietnam, and improve data flow by focusing on city policies, planning,

sanitation, recreation, information and communication technology (ICT) infrastructure and the built
environment can have a large impact on health. By complementing Smart Cities, BHC aims to improve
access to health services, increase availability of usable data for urban health decision making, and
decrease lifestyle and environmental risk factors for poor nutrition and noncommunicable diseases.
In Indonesia, BHC is partnering with Smart City initiatives in Makassar, South Sulawesi, a city which
experiences urbanization and its subsequent issues. The project will empower citizens, health
professionals and policymakers to use data to improve the health of Makassar.
