 So, good morning or good evening, everyone, whether you're on Zoom, on Tencent or at CGC Beijing in person for this event, first I'd like to welcome you all and thank everyone for attending. I'm Xifan from Urban China Network at Columbia GSAP. Let me briefly introduce Urban China Network and Urban China Forum this year. We are a student organization operated by urban planning students aiming to create a communication platform for Chinese urbanism across multiple disciplines. This is the seventh year of Urban China Forum and I would like to thank our sponsors GSAP, Columbia Global Center Beijing and the Weatherhead East Asian Institute for making this forum possible. During this challenging year, we are proud to be able to host a two-day U.S. China Forum here at this virtual meeting room with all of you. This year, our theme revolves around cities' response to COVID-19 as Chinese cities have been in the center of the discussion. We hope to discover multiple aspects of urbanism in the pandemic to reflect on the past, review the present, and reimagine a post-COVID future. Many of you may have attended yesterday's forum with the topic of management and pandemic urbanism with Mr. Rui Qian, Professor Qin Mingzhan, and Professor Yin Long. Today, we'll continue the forum with two other topics. We are honored to be joined by leading practitioners and scholars today. Topic technology and smart planning will be joined by Professor Zhi Qiang Wu from Tongji University and Mr. Ya Ming Xu from World Economic Forum China. The topic of Resolund and Healthy City will be discussed by Mr. Dai Zhongliu from World Resource Institute China and Professor Lang Wang from Tongji University. The schedule has been posted in the chat box for your reference, and there will be Q&A sessions following each presentation. Also please be reminded about the forum will be recorded. Now I would like to invite UCN's advisor, Professor Wei Pinghu, Program Director of Masters in Urban Planning at GSAP to give us a short opening remark for today. Thank you, Xifan. Thank you to all of the students. I am very, very proud of you. And I also want to thank all of you to Dalin, either in Beijing or in Shanghai or from anywhere. So welcome to GSAP, to Columbia, and to Urban Planning at Columbia. I wish we could be in person, but if there is any silver lining of this pandemic is that we can actually talk across continents. And so yesterday's presentations and discussions were very helpful, and I hope we'll continue that today. And pandemic has affected all of us across different continents. On this side of the Pacific, it really has been crisis after crisis after crisis. And it's difficult to think that may be a new normal or promise. And in light of that, I think what China has done brings us to bear that perhaps the gaps and the gulf between global south and global north are no longer there, and we perhaps are seeing promises from the other side of the Pacific. Especially I think along three dimensions, and that is one, climate change, right? Just as we were making progress towards climate change adaptation and mitigation, a pandemic hit. So how can we continue to overcome the crisis of pandemic as well as continue to strive towards climate change adaptation when everybody is trying to remain healthy? And second, particularly on this side of the Pacific, pandemic has shown that where you live, who you are in the cities really matter. Social spatial segregation has shown its ugly face more than ever during the pandemic. And we know particularly in New York City where Columbia is, the poor and the black and the Latinx communities are being affected the most. And last but not least is we also are seeing on the side of the Pacific that public investment or lack of has really affected and how cities and those who live in the cities, all of us can cope with the pandemic and especially with the rising of various different technologies. And so we really very much hope through this interchange today that we get to know how Chinese cities and Chinese residents and scholars and practitioners are engaged with these challenges. And I really want to thank all of the speakers for coming in. It's a Sunday morning and it's also right after, you know, the October 1st holiday week. And so thank you for being so generous with your time. And I look forward very much to your presentation and wisdom. Thank you. Waiting for your remark. I think we can start now. So Professor Wu already can't wait to start great as well. So now let's welcome him to give us an presentation on smart planning. Okay, good. Thank you for the invitation and the very delight that you, the GSAP organization, the students together for this special topic in this year. And I just not talk about the general knowledge about smart planning, smart city. It's concentrated on the very special topic for the special end to pay the epidemic efforts in the Chinese city. And so it's really very important in this year we, in this 7th Urban China Forum, especially concentrated on this topic. I will divide my presentation in the following three points. One is the relationship between the space and time and the resource is so important. And the second, I will come to the urban planning, what we can do in this epidemic prevention. And the third one, I would like, finally, to talk about what's the, can we provide the support for the urban governance? Sorry, Professor, you want to show your screen with us? You don't have my screen. No, we don't have the screen sharing yet. Good. Do you now have it? Yeah, we can see that now. Thank you. Good. Good. Thank you. Excuse. That's my point. So, that's one. And that's the three points what I mentioned, Justin. And then first we come to the relationship between space, time, and the resource, the three relationships between it. It's very important, actually, the response to the urban impact is very important to the crucial driver force. It's very important for the city being. And actually, I would like to say, as a city, as a being, as a life, it's always, it's posed to the continuous impact, which force it to response, to react, to learn, and to update, as that's actually always the history of the growth of the cities, the history in the history, and still today. And so we should, as the urban planner, learn a lot from this process, so it's so important for the, for the, through this epidemic prevention, and also we can learn for the future city. It's very important. So actually, this impact and the countermeasures in the course of the urban development still actually in the long term, especially in the, after the industrialization in the city, especially here I show the spirit of the corona in 19, in 1832 in London. And the, but afterwards, it's a very important, we can see also the, the major urban development initiative in the, in the, in the UK, you can see still through this corona time, and especially step by step to improvement the governance also in the, in the, in the European cities, and certainly also in German cities, especially I also mentioned here the pollution and in the rural industry area, smoke, and the respiratory diseases, and also the cancers in the, in the, in the last century. Certainly this one is always improve a lot of the impact, especially we come back to the Asia cities, the, in the last, after second world war, Japan is also raise, the raise their urbanization rent around the 50 percent to 30 percent, and especially they have also gave a lot of improvement of this different pollution disaster in the cities. And especially I would like here point out that the Asia city is much, much more higher density. That's normally two or three times higher density than the European cities, and also then the, the, the, the, especially higher than North America cities. So that's much more dangerous if the pandemic in the Asia cities comes. So the Asia city is much more nervous in history to the any pandemic that the deaths so pandemic is so much nervous in the, in the history in Asia cities, deaths I would like, first I would point out through this special development. And very important is the way actually for the urban planner much more do the, the, our work on the space, on the space arrangement, on the planning of the spatial arrangement. So that's a very important I would like to say for the urban planning for the urban, the urban epidemic provision is so important for the Chinese cities, for the Asia cities. And the, but the important is the, in the, before the epidemic, before this year's, if we say a lot of the invisible planning like the, the safe for emerging guideways in the city, people don't so pay so a lot of attention. And in the last decades, they pay much more first one much more paid attention for the economic growth. But in the last two years, to the last decades, a decade, the 10 years, then paying a lot of attention to the history, heritage, paid more attention to the green area for the beautiful movement. But the always very easy to forget this, the, the, the prevention planning for I always say that's always invisible in this greening area systems. But today, we can really through this pandemic in this, this year, we can tell them every city leader, so for the government say very clearly cities where space could be exchanged for the time. It's very important that this time, if we get the better arrangement and especially we don't demolish that's the invisible planning for our permit for the images, the prevention planning, the waste, the space, the reserve for the special emergency system, the time, then we can change this better arrangement of space to get much more time. For example, we actually in the bigger city planning always reserve a lot of green small parks, like, just like we say the pocket green area, very small, only 100, even 300, 400, 500 square needs small green area. This is actually very important for the prevention. But most people in the last 10 years say it that's just for the green for the beautiful of the city. Actually, much more is invisible is for the prevention for this any time happens the permit epidemic. So it's very important now we say very clearly the through this special arrangement, especially also a lot of the ways direct to the green area, to the neighboring area of the residential areas, we can see a lot of the green space reserved actually for this emerging the health hospitals. We always actually takes a lot of the way and also the final the space green space for the for the emerging hospitals, but the most people will save the money for these ways that the range the lose to the to the play green place. So if we do it much better, they're just like the planning in the in the space, then we can save a lot of time in this pandemic happens time, then we get a lot of days one week or even three days. It's very, very important to these these three days one week to take the time we can enable the efficient allocation of epidemic prevention equipment resources much faster to gathering together. And that these is the actually the core points we through changing this space resource to time resource the time resource to get the allocation of epidemic prevention facilities, hospitals, also the the doctors. That's the much important actually through this fast allocation of the resource of this pandemic prevention, we can do much better the the the in the different cities. This is the first point I will I say it's much more important here also I can show you the the case of my students in Wuhan. They also do much important this three the the mobile carbon hospitals. This is actually we can see it the the in the middle range. This is always very easy to forget for the normally urban planning. So we today we can see very clearly this is not invisible planning. This is also today we can just show the every people that's the visible should be visible not invisible planning. This is a very important actually to to to to treatment this the pandemic time. So this is also the case we do a lot of change the space efficient space and the the print plate to the space for the emerging time to get the much more short time to get the the the gathering the facilities and also the the doctor teams from the different the the cities faster to very fast to gathering quickly to gathering together. This is the also the I think yesterday the professor from the Wuhan gave you a lot of case but this is the point we can see very important that's the faster time to gathering over over four take four thousand bats together in in one month. If especially we can I can show you the also the different very important these facilities these carbon hospitals as you can see the different the effect if the three days before we do it in the three days later it you can see the pandemic speed as pretty as a totally different the course so it's the just that the points come back better space arrangement better spatial planning better special preparation for the pandemic time then we get much more short time the short time means the life in the city that's the first point the second point I will I say the what can we do as over planning in this special epidemic time there actually in these times we much more normally the knowledge is divided in three majors one is the vital larger and the second is the infectious diseases and the third one is the public health we can actually do not too much for the first the the area but we for the second and the third one we can learn a lot also do our much more contribution and especially in this pandemic time we very fast to to to make the spatial the display in our in our team every day so we the the the update our date from the different province in China and certainly we also do it for the global in the in one month later but at the first time so we in the February January February we do it in the in our only in Chinese different provinces and to see the different resource different the space arrangement and the very important is the way also do much more concentrate in the different level the first of all I think we can do the through the data we do much more diagnostics for the epidemic situation in different the cities and especially come to the much more detailed place and to the every street every the the blocks this is so we can see the very important in that this is the course here we can see if for the three days later the all three days early we can do different totally different lines to influence the the course of the epidemic time now so three days is very very important to see we also do much more the facilities where is the facility where is the hospital where is the the the patient or patient and the so between the the the the see the exactly the place is we always ask where should be the best location for the hospital for the carbon hospital for the normally hospital can check it very clearly certainly way and so that's the I show you the analysis of the distance between the the helper seeks and also the hospital the one third people actually is the over three kilometers and this is not only the time for the people it's also so the is the public transportation is also much more dangerous so we should do much better distribution of our hospital and the clinic and this is to show you the the the course what I say if the three days early we can see that totally different the course if the three days later then we can see also another course it's the the time actually we really recognize in the middle in the Wuhan the this is the course and then the outside this is the middle size is the discourse so it's very important to to to because from middle to to the to the middle of the city downtown to the to the out ring it's the three days later then you can see the totally different course it's also very important not only the the the the density it's also depends on the time to arrangement the facilities we are following the every biggest cities in the from the February the the Wuhan, Shenzhen, Shanghai, Guangzhou, also Beijing, Dalian, the different the biggest cities it can we can see the every day's changing in the space so this we come to very important conclusion I can show you here here so we do the we do the very fast the the the correlation between the the the epidemic situation in the location in the city and then we can see the time where is the time the people living in the in the city the different hours and then we find out very very important is the the evening time it's very important much high contribution in Shanghai for example the in the in the housing evening from the 22 o'clock to next morning 6 o'clock the time it's most of people in the residential area there's a much more correlated to the epidemic and the second contribution is the the shopping center also the recreation evening time and the third one is the public transportation 18 contribution so because this is the during the time in China is the the new year Chinese new year time the spring new year festival so we don't see a lot in the contribution relate to the company to the working place so it's also very important to tell us very important is the residential area for this prevention of this pandemic situation so we in the second in the 24th February we after this our analysis we gave the proposal to the city government we say don't make the block down the whole city the whole city need a lot of transportation support and also the the the environment the the governance a lot of things should be in emerging support very fast support even so don't the simply the total city block down we should concentrate in the residential area it's much more important so afterwards the treatment is much more concentrated in every community in every blocks it's much more important the street is much more open for the transportation and this is actually the contribution from the a lot of academic analysis we are also one team to in the in the end of February give the proposal very fast to the government and that's the very important we can see where so this exactly the data where is the correlation much higher to the different time different space that's very important uh this is the what we're doing between the it's here i actually i would like to say uh the last uh words uh last points uh this is very important the community community is the most important to anti-pandemic defense actually the final important so we analysis the different people in the in the community and the the left side we show what's the the the epidemic information and what's the epidemic governance can do and the right side we can see what's the intelligent uh the the smart system what what can through the data system can be followed can be support us to this anti-epidemic solution and through this different uh the the important the influence and then we can see the different treatment especially just like i just mentioned in the last point the community is the most important but here today uh i would like to tell the older students that the difference of the governance of the chinese cities and the the western cities very different the chinese cities they have the governance of three levels the first is the city government second the district government this is also two levels like in western cities but the chinese city have the third one the semi-government uh like the the not from top down government there's also the select of the people from the community this is the so-called the street community the street community the half is the government to support the finance but the another is the select of the people from the the local people this is the i would like to say the some semi-government governance it's it's very efficient in this time and there are a lot of for uh the the people just the self-arrangement and also get the the the the resource material resource also the different financial resource they arrange for the community in the chinese cities that's actually the the key point actually why these chinese cities do it that's the show uh this is the point is very important i would like to say the important is the for these high density asia cities they have not only the two levels also the the second level the community the the street community to uh to to arrange a self-arranger also the with the support of the government this is the block down and they check the every people who come to who is the from the which uh go to which family it's this is a self-arrangement it's a very very special contribution actually for the for the anti-epidemic arrangement for the governance uh we also finally i would like to show you also this the the website intelligent city and we do also the the the uh the global COVID-19 status and the research we also do the competition of the world and this of the young people they can to predict what's the next week next four weeks and the sole competition who should be can do the better prediction it's also a lot of young people from the whole world to do the different prediction for the for the for the different for the world actually and the final day also they get a good very good uh the price the first price signal price and this is the finally i would like to say uh when the the tenors the material and also energy are uh introduced the inside of the cities this i always use the city beings as a life yeah is that the internal urban space really or carry is always the question and finally i would like to say the external elements are necessary for the pretty quiet size for the urban development but the urban space carries is the warmth that is always very important so sometimes we always think that a good city carries can will hold the positive external elements but the importance can we the city also on another side do well performance cities can also take the positive elements well and also can also resist the negatives external elements this is also in the life of the cities in the development of the city history so it's very important we also not only do it we also see the very important so the city is important is how can you control the interns of the city being open totally open or in the emergency very fast close this is the the important the key point i think this the ability very required for the next planning the the core ability to with this the outside impact this is last words i would like to say the open governance come back to this jiayuan jiayuan means jia is the family means the garden the favorite garden in china jiayuan means the way together in this block this the jiayuan so i the last words i would like to say open governance come back to jiayuan open governance come open planning come back to this invisible planning in the past now we can visible for the governance for the public thank you thank you very much thank you so much professor it was really interesting to learn from exchanging space for time to this jiayuan idea on urban governance now we only have approximately one minute for a question so i'd like now to take one question if anyone since she's only asking so ben in the chat box asks understand exchange grain space for butte space exchange space for time so professor can you elaborate a little bit on that yeah okay good thank you good well i'm so sorry yes i have to just a moment yeah i don't share the screen yes thank you good on the issue of exchange space for time can you briefly explain a little bit we'll have an upcoming guest speakers soon sorry seems professor who has dropped offline will have mr yamin shu from world economic firm to bring us to bring to us a presentation about iot and planning thank you lisa and i will share my screen now you can see it right okay great thank you for the invitation uh i my presentation is more focused on technology side so the reflection is that how technology can support the covin 19's recovery and also control and in the further is that how iot relevant high technology can support future city development they will call it that it's a great reset right so how we recover from covin 19 and also the nature diseases just the past national holidays everybody can feel it so we can see that more than 13 million people just travel by flight and totally is 63 million people in china have experience of the domestic traveling during the past eight days so my feeling is that it's almost back to normal just a deeper difference is that everybody makes a mask on the basis you can see this is the handsome boy or a beautiful lady in front of you but we feel that the life is back you can see this is the very famous wuhan mobile cable hospital and previously is uh it's a studio studio right it's already back to the studio again people play badminton inside and here is the street in qingdao and during covin 19 it's all lockdown lockdown everybody's locked down at home and here is the night of the of the road so people just traveling and shopping and eating so on you can see that in china but maybe it's the only places we can quickly go back to normal and who are the heroes definitely doctors and dirt and public health relevant experts so on but remember another part is that city express which data is quite each other right in the three months of the lockdown at home this provides the necessary goods or living stuff that make your life feel basic normal and behind it what happened is that we have economic right we have Ali Baba we have tensor we have jingdong we have everything and also we have ai and big data supported so the third one is the national uh logistic network which is really helping uh the city express that can function normally and this is a very important uh element also what is that besides people here is a lot of devices take a lot of traction you have a demo devices cameras you have a robot working in different hospitals and also you everybody know in china you know that we have a qd code everywhere and we also use the uh the drone in the city to do some work that people cannot handle and this is what happened in china and also it's resting worldwide here through the data through the iot devices and we can a lot of data and see here here is the some kind of analysis that here are the human uh what kind of what the general of the of the people getting back to you and what is the area of the city getting back to you and what is the trend of the of the travel and the relationship of the people uh about effective people and this is the three fundamental questions you need they don't need to answer because the data already answered for you is who you are where you come from where you want to go right and i think that is the date this is the this something that uh the data uh can tell you and also tells the relevance of public uh officers so there's kind of a reflection is that from the personal rights and health and safety how you balance that there's no right or wrong you just see that the covid 19 is dramatically impacted your life and also the city development city operation city functions and we feel safe because we contribute our privacy and personal freedom to this bigger public services we contribute our data our trends of the traveling to public services right but in different way you can say this is wrong or this is right i would like to see that in a certain uh situation just like covid 19 we need to balance a rethink which one is more important i have the answer this is a reflection and you have your answer by your own self and we say that after covid 19 we we need to understand the data power but also limited them in the right approach for right dimension how we can protect our privacy how we can use the data to increase the job security how we can uh balance the personal freedom and also the city paramatic control right so this is the thing that we want everybody to have a thing and also give your own answers on that part what is the resilient cities here is the organization uh OECD has their uh uh definition i don't want to go through it but also that that mentioned the two things first is that instant shock just like nature diseases or earthquake covid 19 and also long-term pressure just like job high housing price and also environmental changing so on so according to economy society governments and the environment they have a different thing key ps and also key important deliverables that we can put both working together to go through what iot and also relevant uh technology we call it the in the envelope of the the first industry revolution iot a i blockchain and a major colorstone technologies and then there's different applications like what we said is join and a smartphone uh smart home and uh ultram vehicles so on uh specific medicine is all burned by the first technology first industry revolution inside it's very important things a two things very important thing first one is that how we can connect the physical world to digital world and then it's that how we can use the power of the data to to shape the future of the world right so here is the logic link about iot has support uh from the physical work we have we have a lot of sensors devices that they captured the information and then we have the data right it's the raw data after the ai um processing we have an algorithm and we can see this what is the information behind the data and the information can guide the decision making and then we have some actions and feedback to the real world so this is a kind of loop that can improve the state of the physical world for example uh just like professor who mentioned it in wuhan or in shanghai how we can identify or analyze the uh paradigmatic exposure what is the trend what is the people's movement so on so we use a lot of iot data and also devices to to uh assess the the information for decision making so here is that a lot of things that can be used by the iot uh devices and iot technologies kinematics diseases accidents building uh life cycle management and uh energy smart smart grid smart transportation uh air pollution uh public security for sure and also the city management maybe you know that most of the most of the city is in china over 600 of the cities in china already uh implemented will have the plan of the smart city that means big city like beijing and shanghai a lot of smart applications of smart infrastructure and also city level city brand smart city centralized operation center big screen a lot of data show on screen a lot of people is working besides the computer or cell phone to see what is the information how we can make decisions so on so that's the iot and ai based smart city means so but there is a challenging work wisely is that when a new technology appears and this is dramatically the application and also technology itself can dramatically increase and you can see this is the technology can burn very far and but another side is how you can see policy uh technology governance regulation it's not really uh updates very fast according to the technology trend so so there is a big gap between the technology governance and also the technology development either you imagine that when a new technology appears but there's no way to transcend it or no way to uh control it this is a disaster right just a new clear you can use the new clear to view the new key new clear power station but you can use it to make a bomb so how to control it how to understand the new technology how to use it to our uh real life this our mission is the world economy forum uh stand for so what do we see that uh how we can really fight from the paradigmatic and we are looking for really reset the really reset this slogan for 2021 that was annual meeting so here we use that slogan it's very important is that how we can unlock the power of the iot and also relevant technology and to transfer the space where we leave with work and space for more sustainable more resilient more uh equitable so here is the some expert uh domain where we are focusing on uh home and museum or walking places agriculture fields hospital markets so on so back to the uh topic resilient cities my feeling is that just like body you need to uh let the uh the organization or the cities can re-bomb or or re-register yourself and there is a kind of technology and also the governments that can provide this kind of power just that you have some um um i was that heard on the scheme but you were recovered by yourself you even don't know it and inside is the is the intel automatic system can support it what we call it the automatic system it's not just the technology itself but also the how people understand it how people organize as a self how we say this is the community or this is the place we leave how we can contribute ourselves into it to involve into the big issues and put your own self uh into a big picture so here i would like to see that most of the people uh participate in that i see here is the 58th year so i think most of the people are young people young students right the future is yours and and we would like to contribute use you would like to contribute yourself into this uh project and see how we can and send award how we can influence it because it's the home eventually uh for you for the decade right so here is some projects relevant uh to cities were running infrastructure uh digital safety uh inclusive resilience so what do we say is that uh as the biggest worldwide collaboration organization forum is uh hosted at engaging with different governments business leaders academics and also social organizations to uh we started that is a multi stakeholders and we launched different events and projects to increase the communication increased collaboration between different people we find a way to see hey this is our vision inside shaping the future of the world shaping the future of the resilient city and this is a lot of projects will keep going the second one is that during the last um japan g20 um summit we launched a new global uh uh project the smart city alliance it's a technology alliance relevant to future smart city development the uh story is that in the past 40 years or even longer time different cities in different countries have their own understanding of the smart name and then they have their own learning and experience and also the journey to match into that mission or vision but now we need to have more uh consolidation of world experience and ideas into a global vision how we see the global smart city looks like how we can contribute to a more smart world and how we can define uh the governance and also our government framework and also the relevant a tpi uh physical so this is a very big and global organization and we will also uh launch the first international pilot cities who can learn and adapt the uh government framework from the study uh in uh november uh so one or two chinese cities will be inside of course uh north america americans canada south american european middle east there's a lot of cities on the street the last thing i want to share with you is that during the academic uh during the uh paradigmatic consumer wild boasts uh contribute a lot of information to support the cove 19 um control and uh prevention there's things that we our researcher on this part is that we would like to understand the data from the variable uh devices we really support of course support the cove 19 uh uh fight but also how we can identify the boundary of the data applications data ownership data rise of usage and also data privacy data security so on this is so very important and also uh critical questions that can maybe a roadblock to prevent the smart technology merge into the city's development but also maybe it's kind of power to push smart city go forward it depends on how we hand send it and it depends on how we can so uh find a way to solve the the questions just like i said it ownership privacy security uh market medicine so on so that's what we now working on and i really invite uh world experts and young talents during the global researches on that part the last word i want to say that uh just like professor who mentioned that the city is not building it starts the road it starts uh the infrastructure it's people it's people we live in the physical uh world but we also uh inject we also have a digital world that can have kind of uh collaboration or community between the physical world so there's the three uh fundamental things that i see that uh the resilient city must contain one is the people so people's resilience people's healthy people's safety is most important thing second thing is that the physical world the physical order and the physical infrastructure can support that right the third one is the digital world so how the digital uh equipment digital data and digital um technology can always back to the physical world and the people and have some uh how see that tactful good right so this is what i'm standing about this topic so thank you it's my presentation thank you so much mr shui so now we'll have 10 minutes of q&a sessions please feel free to ask questions either through raise hands by participant paths or typing the chat box so um i actually have a question first and this is when we're contacting something i ask you about from your industry insights what do you think it's a largest barrier here to actually install the internet of things and to actually make it a tool for resiliency well i think there's two way two things firstly one is the technology or an economic way instead uh iot is kind of um technology that can connect physical world and capture the data to the digital world right so we if we must we if we understand better the physical world we need to have a lot of sensors or a lot of devices that can give us more data right but the problem economic or and technology studies that how we can have more cheaper uh and offerable and and massive uh devices that we can use everywhere just like a light sensor or humidity sensor maybe cost 50 or 100 gans uh and even in a building you have a 1,000 or 10,000 of the sensors you are saying well it's not affordable because the economic point of view is that to expensive so this is the one thing i think that we need more solution or business world on that part the second one is that uh and standing and also the the order about using the data from iot site so everybody mentioned or concern about uh data privacy and data security and we don't have a unique answer about it so first is that we need to have kind of communication and equation to different people what is the iot means what is the data means what is the digital means right and people understand it and then we can launch more uh uh profanity uh and uh discussion to see if we met this kind of issue or challenge what is the right way of thinking how we can discuss and then find a common um maybe it's maybe it's not common but it's a compromise the way that people are acceptable and solve it so for example data privacy there's no answer yet there's no regulation there's no national law there's no international uh recognition and that's the biggest the issue i i see right it was really interesting so i'd like to know your perspective on how covid has impacted this transitioning to a more um technology accessible approach so yesterday professor in long and qin ming zhan they took a really positive approach on seeing this opportunity as a good transition for us to be more adaptive and more um acclimatized to the technology do you think that's a case i feel that there's different things uh we will publish our flagship report on november and here uh in that report we have kind of focus of the iot market first is that we see the curve is like that so uh there is the timeline that iot market is a little bit lower the expectations because the impact of covid-19 it's very simple it's a lot of business activities and also um manufacturing suggests the block will stop during covid right so there is a limit of the iot and business but after the covid-19 it's recovered and also over our expectations very sharply but in some some kind of some field for example a smart factory so uh human beings play a very important part in the industry sector but during the covid you can see if you have better uh level of of of the of uh automation you can survive and even live better and that way uh deeply increase the iot devices and uh ai technology application in a manufacturing also public sectors it's like smart building smart transportation smart grid use a lot of iot data iot devices so that's the trend that we can see in different places that um so we were limit we were controlled uh of human beings uh uh present in in some region or in some uh domain so that is the part we see uh iot market where expansion in short time we see that in industry and also smart city level but another thing we see some of the some of the uh area where we're not very not having good news is it's not because the technology itself because of the some of the um uh industry just can't recover from the impact of the covid-19 so it really depends on the the situation but we have very good uh confidence about future iot technology application uh in the city or in different uh industries great thank you we'll take one more question so she fun asks would the use of technology itself also have an impact on the physical landscape of economic activities say if all events are happening online e-commerce e-retail would that negatively impact the physical economic activities happening for sure it will impact a lot of things uh just like you said you will go to uh shopping mall you you will really do two things right first is that you you'll try a closed but you don't run by uh instantly you are searching online to compare the price and also find online channel to buy uh and also after during covid-19 a lot of aged people forced to use the uh cell phone to buy uh food to buy uh living stuff so on and that means uh most a lot of uh aged people were or people who don't use a lot of cell phone for uh e-commerce just join in the army right so this is good thing is that e-commerce we are increasing people's uh capability of the consumer consumer but a bad news for the physical uh market is that some of the some of the market will disappear and some of the market will merge with e-commerce just like you know Suning Dianqi right Suning is the big one of the biggest uh uh electronic market and now they have a lot of activities it leaks online so on uh what we say is that always in different ways in different uh timing always some old-fashioned uh business were dying and new born uh business were born and also merged with existing or traditional business so that's the nature now and we say that we count 100 living in a digital world where our people are or real or physical our house are real or physical our world is physical so i still believe that we need the physical services we need the physical market we need a lot of physical uh uh city services and communities so i still believe that the digital world and the physical world can survive together and must must be the way right right thank you so much so now we're going to enter the next topic it was really interesting learning the links between technology and urban forms so now on to the topic of resilient and health health city let's welcome Dai Zhongliu on climate smart cities of China uh thank you Lisa uh okay thank you everyone good morning good evening uh today i will present uh climate smart cities comprehensive strategy in particularly during the post-epidemic uh era uh i'm from the world resource institute we are kind of a think tank and do tank from the usa and i'm from the china office uh before we're talking about things about the climate smart strategy let's uh briefly talk about the koi 19 impacts globally and china uh this is the latest figures from globally you can find it clearly the koi 19 have the second wave in particularly in spain uk and us these countries but in china uh you can see uh the left up uh china is a control well during the last week it's a golden week in china we only find that 21 confirmed the cases so all china control the situations very well and they you can also see the koi 19's impact on china's economic so uh below side is a manufacturing uh pmi from china so you can find it's a drop very dramatic during the january and the february but now we are go back to normal so this is uh pmi is a back to uh normal and the gdp today is a three or four percent last season so they are even they are below the normal but they are i will cover quickly so here i can show some other indicators that's below the normal you can find a schedule of lights it's a few of it's uh uh still below the normal and the metro trips in the resort uh depending is below the normal but back to the normal you can find a cold consumption is back to the normal the road traffic and the property sales is even more than the same peer rate during the 2019 so so you can find the different area that recovers speed is it's a very diverse and then the next one is a traffic the first one you can find is a back to the normal is a passenger traffic the car and the congestion across 100 cities in china is really uh more congested compared to the 19 and the but the public transportation uh the leadership is still below the normal you can find this is uh the major chinese city from shanghai beijing guanzhou and shenzhen today the daily readerships is only 80 to 85 percent as a euro in 2019 so the public transportation is below the normal but the congestion is more than normal huh and another interesting thing is about the uh what happened during the wuhan city lockdown during the january uh 23rd to the march first during that period we can find the people have a significant change on the travel mode so you can find the the share bikes the bikes take account almost 56 percent of all our trips so this is a very interesting uh the figure the chair you during the wuhan some lockdown most of people are shortened their travel distance and this is very uh brilliant the the efforts to support us the next phases in our strategy that's called the 15 minutes the neighborhood planning so because people only need a bicycle in our very shortened times to to can cover all the the need i cut the need of the life so this is very interesting things and another one is a very important background we need to think about because a lot of people say the koei is a link to the population density they think in very cloud areas where we have more easy to be inflect or have higher as the conformed cases but world bank study uh shows that in chinese cities the to confirm the case is not directly related to the urban density not not directly linked to to the population densities and the quite a similar research from the new york cities you can they are do a more specific that the kind of comparison but uh based on the the neighborhood skill you can find the neighborhood have different the density of our residential densities in the left side and the conformed case in the right side the figures so isn't from the directories sense it's not linked a lot of area where it is very high density but very low conformed cases and the most are very low density neighborhood it's interesting its name is corona the district have very highest the density so this is another question we need to answer both the panemics that's a urban urbanization is not the reason of the koei that's right and and then we also think observe some other things happen that's a core conception as a power plant in china now is higher than the 2019 this is a quite interesting thing but we call it a very range of pollution and this kind of things you can also find in other uh the crisis like the oil crisis like 2008 the global financial crisis you can find they have a very range of pollution so this is the things we need to think about uh here i show you some figures about the the the knocks the air pollutant issues in china you can find in the january and the february the old all china's knocks the pollutant is quite well but today they are coming coming back and from the right side beijing guangzhou shanghai shenzhen the larger city in china from the january to the august most of the city have the sea the trade that's it go back to the air pollutants so this is another issue so we need to think about so this is why today when we're talking about the post-pandemic era the big question is we are not just a build back we need to thinking build forward we call it a build back better so this is why we need to thinking the covee is not only the threatened but also the opportunity for for for china uh because uh not only the recessions but we can have this opportunity to change the climate change on also by uh biodiversity as a collapse so this is uh the figure show you most of a chinese city is a coastal coastal cities they are very easy to be uh have a big damage during the the sea level uh racing so uh i think this is why china our president shijin ping just announced that china want to achieving the carbon neutrality before 2060 this is the reason that's we saw the opportunity during the post-pandemic we have a more ambitions on this one so that's why we are start thinking about this one and launch our new program is called the climate smart program and we start to think about to promote our comprehensive strategy for chinese urban cities cities to promote the comprehensive solution for the resilience and when we're talking about resilience more people thinking very narrow focus on the flooding or tomb water issues but actually we have a very diverse the challenges about resilience not only the flooding but also the heat the epidemics the spine and the social justice and also infrastructures uh value and the housing affordable the aging facilities so these are all they are all the challenges we need to thinking about the urban resilience not only the flooding so uh we do some research and reading some papers and we're thinking uh i similar as Dr Xu just mentioned we need to think in climate smart cities have a three p three areas we need to focus why is climate smart city for people and for place and for process for each area we're thinking we we have we can find some leverage points for example for people we want to create uh uh a climate smart 15 minutes neighborhood as what i just talked about wuhan during the lockdown areas wuhan most of the citizens are only uh living within the 15 minutes the bicycle the circles can can can can afford it for almost one month so that means the 15 minutes a neighborhood can play a very important role for the future and the next one we need to think in climate smart cities for the place that means building environment or infrastructure in particularly for the lifeline infrastructure so we find a strategy for infrastructure and the last one we need to think in the process that means we need to enhance the climate the governance in particularly use a data platform to have the our government make a better decision a smart decision on the how to measurement climate so this is the overall the comprehensive strategy but for each one we can find some uh bullets uh we want to go deeply for example climate smart strategy for people we need the first one to identify climate risks and improve adaptation uh capacity and also establish the planning and the design guidelines well the reason we call this a strategy is climate smart because we are not only focused on the climate change and mitigation but we also need to think about adaptation and the resilience so this is why we are not only for the reduced CO2 emission but we also need to thinking how to adapt if the temperature rise up 1.5 degree so this is the the background we need to have the neighborhood to do a smart decision on it but the reason now for for China's neighborhood is they didn't have a capacity because the different the community or neighborhood they really faced the different challenges for the resilience some community maybe the flooding is a big issue some areas maybe heating is the issue and some community maybe the old people is the issue so this is the first thing we need to have the city uh thinking about this one the good things is a very good the signal from the chinese city like Beijing Shanghai we already create eight the 15 minutes neighborhood strategy by the year 2017 or 2018 they are target yeah it is uh make the city really happened the 15 minutes the left cycle by the year 2035 but but this is a very uh a high level the strategy by the way when you go to the neighborhood go to the community you can find they really very challenging because it's a pretty diverse and what kind of action or measure we can use is by the complicated then we can shoot some cases that's the so where works the community side to do the climate smart action strategy like from the master plan we can find the the the launch of a program called the pole the cool roof that's depending the roof of the building to reduce the temperature so uh this is a very brilliant ideas that's a thing can innovate chinese local community for example just in this program they can reduce the air conditioning costs about 10 percent to 30 percent and also can reduce the internal buildings temperatures up to the 30 percent in the summer and you know china already starts thinking about the roof solar power panels program so this can achieve more benefits from this kind of a program and it can contribute to the community levels and also in the community neighborhood skill we can find the blue roof the water pumpkin the rain the vegetable garden the green street low carbon transportation public engagement and education so we can do a lot of actions based on the community and a very important thing during the community works we need to have them to establish the capacity in the neighborhood because so far in our the community management office nobody really understands the challenges from the climate change and how action or measures they can handle to change these challenges so this is why we have we need to have them to have a developed a design approach or guidelines and we also need to have them to build up the mechanism that's we have full time staff really understand and wear a trend to know how to handle this climate and the resilience issues very comprehensive and also need to create a cross departure platforms because every because it's too complicated no one department can control all the the resilient issues so we need to build up across departure ordination platforms so that's a full time staff and works and also we need to give the community side the climate risk investigation tools to have them to identify the problem so this is the three uh the many areas we are focused today and we are and and we have a staff that's a community climate risk survey uh from the August we have uh we pick up almost 15 communities in Shenzhen and we do some survey from the different group of recent and also from the government officer and we want to have them to build up establish their climate risk awareness and also have them to find the climate risk the interventions and during the community interventions finance we need thinking about about how to get the money for the community to support the actions for the next few years so this is the first part of the climate smart strategy for the people and the second part is the full place for place is a more complicated because they are focused on infrastructure and the building environment so we want to start from the analysis and summarize the international case it's quite easy and then we need to think about the the establish the climate risk because bringing tools and the method and also implement in the assessment of some some pilot program and but this is a very uh this perspective uh this program's perspective is very meaningful for China because China invested a lot of money into the urban infrastructure area so they are also the top countries are easy to have a huge economic lose due to the increase the climate the surface so uh and we we also discussion with our government that's in the early phase when you invest more money into making the new infrastructure more resilient you can achieve to more net benefit compared with other mis-knowledge like the early warning system or protecting the the infrastructures so that's making the new infrastructure resilience is important way and the most benefits cost the ratio higher as the way so uh this is the first step we can work together with the Chinese local government how to move it and we can learn from the London resilience place action plan they have a lot of things like put the new infrastructure more resilient than the zero carbon like the highway the metro system and make they are more uh put more data sensors to uh measurement and also we need to think about innovation and the business to make it happen and we also can find some other case from the one New York City's the long the western planning 2050 they have uh improved for example they want to use the digital uh mis-knowledge to improve the resilience of street they can put sensors 5g i big data so so so uh that's make the street more resilient during the stormwater or heating systems and this is also very where uh a match the vision of China's new infrastructure scheme for the post-pandemic recovery and we are also either thinking about it and the China also have very good successful programs that have infrastructure more resilient we call it the sponge city program and then you can find that the Shenzhen is have a very long history of water management uh uh during the before the sponge cities huh but they are targeting is only slowing inner city flooding and enhance that the rainwater will be reused but they in China we we're talking about the lifeline infrastructure not only means the water facilities or water management and it also means other infrastructures so so that's other means today Shenzhen need to think about not only water but also electricity transportation or communication facilities and we can also scale up our sponge cities uh program to other areas for example in Beijing the latest new uh international airport uh Beijing Daxing airport they are already integrated with the sponge uh uh programs so uh uh so they are so Beijing Daxing international airport can fully collect the rainwater and the fully treatment it in savage and achieving almost zero discharge and today the natural storage of water on the side has reached almost 700,000 cubic meters and you can also show some here can also show some cases about Japan how to management the the food control measures installed in the subway so even during a very extreme the climate uh the period they can like typhoon or or or water or tory so rains the mattress events still can work and for example like a pandemic areas the how we move the the mattress system working is also a big issue so we need our thinking unprepared very for it and also in UK the concrete wall and the flood get also installed to protect the utility sides for UK so during the typhoon we still had and have an electric the power supply so this is the way and the last part is we need the thinking make our garments have a better governance the capacities that means the process so we are completed the superstructure and top-level design we need to have a top-level design for the government how to manage the climate so far they are uh disparate uh to a lot of our departments more than certain departments have a function related to climate change but we need to think about how to design a new top-level design to integrate and the coordination between the different departments and also develop the relevant tools and platform and improve the market the the participation so this is the some also that some other actions from the London can show to you for example London have a adaptive greater London authority so that's authority can management all issues related to climate change and also they have a lot of the truth to supposing for example the Google just launched a new environment impact evaluation truth so for this truth they already go to a very level for example they can evaluate the air pollutant air quality based on the street they can evaluate different streets with different air quality issues and also they can thinking about transportation emission based on the different transit transportation mode for example this street have a mall path for a bicycle and the mall bus line they can have better transportation emission evaluating results and also if that's true they can evaluate different building emissions and even the solar power the solar power emission on the top of the buildings so we can find a lot of internet company or GND already start so thinking about have the government to have better climate management and the government's capacities and in New York cities they also they have a very complicated the truth they can not only evaluate the sea level rise of air quality they also can have a heat risk also have a green roof green space blah blah blah they have a lot of functions to have to understand and also the urban food green can evaluate the different community how to face the sea levels of racing so this is a very important tool also for the developer they can know they can evaluate the risk of that's a piece of land and the dark orange here indicates that the spatial flooding the hazard areas can and impacted the pestle in Miami Florida and the last the governance is we need to have the government thinking about where the money coming from not only from the public fund how we involve the marketing involvement so this is from the UK we're thinking some very financial innovation this mechanism like insurance so for example in UK they link the insurance with a baseline with the sea levels the river levels and give back the insurance the catastrophic insurance based on the different flooding level and the receive return so this is a quite complicated system but again we think today we need to use that to post the COVID the opportunity to promote a very comprehensive strategy for the city we need to really thinking the resilience climate as a one and use a lot of new data new miscellaneous so uh climate smart cities we are really welcome all of you to join us because this is a program just start and we are just start with one or two cities and I'm hoping we can have more Chinese cities to join and use all of the global experience to help us thank you very much thank you so much mr Liu so due to time concern we only have three minutes so please feel free to ask any questions you have so in the chat box we have two so first is from chat the non-direct correlation between COVID confirmed density and the population density then what about the economic development of the local community and racial disparity in the U.S. okay so currently we didn't have the economic development in our solar details the skill in in China that's like the local community but with from the city as a whole we're thinking most of the city are going in China are going back in quite similar the speed like the GDP like a make a right to come back to the city area so we try to find some more figures about the economic link to the community level maybe in the future we can find some research great thank you so the next one is from team John on what do you see as the changes of resilient city guidelines for China before and after COVID-19 the first of all we're thinking about that's a measurement mechanism in the community level this time before and after we've been thinking more important we play more important roles we call it the DNA mechanism measurement mechanism like a community management office so we want to put more functions for the community measurement office and one for example in Beijing they already have a full-time urban planner going to the community measurement office and now we want to put more function to this kind of full-time staff like they need to be trained by the how to face the challenges from the climate and the resilience issue so we before and after we're thinking the measurements the mechanism of a measurement roles are being enhanced it and the second one we're thinking uses this pandemic to China means we need to thinking a bit better so this is another thing so we we're thinking it's different because use this opportunity with how to we make the airport and issues matter the carbon neutrality issues really happen this is another opportunity before the covid we never talked too deeply about this issue but now are really very hot topic in China and we're thinking we have a lot of good things happen now thank you so we have a very good questioning the chat box but we'll leave that toward the end let's welcome professor Lan Wang on her presentation of health city planning in post-covid era thank you so much mr. Liu hello everyone thank you so lot for the invitation from professor Wu Weiping Chong Yuan and also Qian Fang and I want to talk about my research on health city planning today all right so first of all as you may all know urban planning is basically initiated for the public health issue back in the 1900s for the industry cities so Zolin actually helped a lot to ensure sunlight and vaccination for buildings this is what I would call the health city version one which through urban planning we actually protect the basic health issues for the cities for the local residents but then after the development urban planning and public health actually may not talk about with each other for quite a long time around the 1980s the world health organization realized that the increasing of overweight diabetes actually should go back to urban planning to think about what urban planning can do for public health as we can see here the concept of health city was proposed by WHO around 1984 and the detailed definition was given around 1994 so it is calling for we built a city that can continuously create and improve the physical and social environments and expanding the local the community resources to support people's health and also enable to people enable people to performing their full function of life and developing their maximum potential and this is quite broad concept but in the detail health city and health city planning research and practice we actually would study from this what we call the rainbow diagram because this chart illustrates that how we could think about as an individual we are influenced by the multiple layers of the built environment and the social environment embedded in the physical environment so this sort of the starting point to think about where how we could conduct health city and health city planning and then as we all know the WHO trying to repute the connection between urban planning and public health even they say that health must be a top priority of urban planners and then around that time many scholars joined the research and practice in this group for instance professor Jason Corbin from Berkeley and he wrote this book toward the health city and also and forces professor and forces from Harvard also said that actually right now we do have what we call the healthy term in urban planning but this is still I want to call it healthy city version two because all those things including WHO professor Jason Corbin and professor and forces more focusing on what we call the NCDs the non-communicable disease but right now we are facing the challenge of infectious disease so what I would say that we are getting into the the stage of studying healthy city version three and before that I also want to share with you the progress in China because just now it's sort of the progress regarding healthy city around the world but what we should see that here we do have evolution in China regarding this for instance at the very beginning what we call it is not healthy city in China we call it a hygiene city program and it's quite important for the local governments to meet the standard of this program and but after a certain time around 2000 people realized that the hygiene is still quite basic we should really think about what the city can do for public health at a higher level so in 2012 the national health commission actually announced this healthy China 2020 it's a strategic report and then later on you can see many other policies and initiatives were announced and around 2015 healthy China became the national strategy but around that time you can also notice NCDs the non-communicable disease is still the focus even when I talk with the officials at the CDC the Center for Disease Control they also said that now it seems we have the shift from the infectious disease to NCDs and also you can see in 2019 we have this healthy China initiative was announced to actually promote certain actions, guidelines and budget to implement the healthy China and this year we can see the changing and even Professor Xi Jinping announced in this talk that we should really promote the integration of health in all policies this is actually also the important policy proposed by WHO and more importantly he said that we should implement the concept of four life circle health management and importantly we should put this all through the entire process of urban planning construction and administration so right now healthy China and healthy city became even more important national strategy and the local government's mission that's those I would say that we are getting into the health city version three and this chart is what I want to show you is when we think about healthy city planning right now we should think about those two approaches the first one if you read some literature regarding healthy city planning in the past you may already know that we regard that urban space has the function of health promotion through better quality of space than to promote active lifestyle and then you have more physical activities and you have better social interaction and in this way we could lower the incidence of NCDs and then we have better health outcomes but you know during this year and I think after 2020 this year we need to think about more about the other approach you know it is the infectious disease and I think what we should regarding as a theoretical framework is to believe that urban space also have the function to prevent and intervene the the happening of pandemic so those three I listed in the box is that actually the three basic components for the infectious disease prevention so first of all we should isolate the source of infection and cut off the transmission pathways and then how we could protect the vulnerable populations actually those three components we should pay attention not only during the pandemic but also before and after so I think those three provided the theoretical framework for urban planners to conduct the research and the practice to improve our capacity of the what we call the the to prevent the infectious disease this is what I would say the healthy city version three and more importantly we need to think about that the same space the same park the same school campus and the same neighborhood have to deal with the two challenges the ncds and also infectious disease so sometimes they may have to you know balance the the the function to those two because sometimes may be conflict and for the for the first approach the ncds my health city lab actually have conducted many researches and I want to share with you this very important chart this is the theoretical framework for healthy city planning but more for ncds we have the building building built environment factors like land use urban form road and transportation system green and open space so all those things are the factors and for planners and the developer developers and designers to arrange to improve the physical and mental health for the local residents and there are three pathways for those special interventions the first one is how we could decrease the pollution and especially its human exposure at the micro level and the second pathway is that how we could increase the physical activity and social interaction and the third pathway is that how we could provide accessible health facilities for instance the allocation of nursing home hospitals all those things as public services and this chart actually was adopted by the WTO and the UN habitat in their new announced source book called integrating health in urban and territorial planning this year and based on that our team conducted research to follow those three pathways I want to just show you very quickly part of it this is the first one the first pathway regarding the pollution so we use the data of non-cancer incidents of communities in Shanghai and use this you know the GI based special analysis to build a model to identify the significant factors special factors to influence the non-cancer incidents and we found a quite interesting outcome such as mixed use actually the mixed use winning one kilometer radio for the residential is actually good for the respiratory health and also we found that road density is not very good for the respiratory health which actually let us rethink about what we are trying to do right now the small blocks and the dense loads design which means that we should rethink about the straight section if we really want to do this small blocks design and then the last interesting find is that we need to really think about the green and the open space configure because it has the balance of accessibility and the the benefit of pollution things so this is the first special analysis and for the first pathway and then we have the second pathway dealing with how we could allocate to the sorry this should be the third pathway to allocate to the community sports facilities and also community senior health care facilities and we use the genie index and knowing curve to show which area has sort of the less health equity so we should add more facilities in certain area this is also a statistic analysis based using the gsq find out where is sort of the high high area that we should pay attention and then for the physical activity we use the public park as the research object and study site to find figure out how we really design the parks and the micro level to promote the physical activity diversity this is also you know a statistical analysis we have this what we call the onsite observation and to identify the physical activities and then built the model to see what kind of site characteristics and what kind of plants could promote the physical activity so all those three are just a part of the work regarding the first approach of ncds and this year you know because of the COVID-19 so our team started to focusing on the infectious disease and also as the ncds we start with the theoretical framework to understand what kind of impact of built environment on the infectious disease so we identified we based on the literature review and a certain survey and to see that we the urban planning urban development and urbanization do you have the impact on the the three basic components the infectious sources transmission and the vulnerable population and during this urban development we can actually also categorize the process into two the ecological process and also the social process to influence the transmission and also the infectious sources for instance the land use change will definitely shift to the the populations activity and also the ecological patches and corridors in this way the frequency and intensity of the integration interaction between the passenger victory and the host will increase and also the built environment definitely will influence the transmission of the virus too and for sure you will you will know the transportation system definitely changes the pattern of the transition in the past and now those are the basic what we call the elements or aspects we should we can think about urban planning could provide the strategy at the regional city and the neighborhood level to to improve those and this actually we definitely developed a matrix but it's quite a complicated day I just want to show you this theoretical framework and then we can discuss in details later regarding that and also we conducted some empirical study using the open data like the websites of local governments, health committees and the media to track the cluster transmission of COVID-19 in China this year and we categorized according to the public health display we categorized the cluster transmission into happening in household social meeting during shopping or on the transportation facilities and then hospital and working place and totally the open source we have totally 1603 cases and totally we have 200 and 80 cluster transmissions and you can see the media number for those different categories and you will realize that where we should pay the most attention to to avoid the to cut off the the transition and then also we conducted research about the alternative care sites and facilities because this is quite important during the pandemic and also we should think about after that because we need to rethink about our design planning for the space to to provide the possibility of combination of normal time and during the pandemic what what kind of space and facilities could promote to the provide the function for for the different time and this is also something we are we are published regarding that and then we will see that how we could integrate in health into urban planning we have three approaches right now the first one is as you know in China we have the national territory special planning system just established and then we have the very important 15 minutes community life circle promoted by the ministry of natural resource as also mentioned by Miss Liu just now and we have the urban design guidelines I will go through quickly because I notice the time is going fast so this is the structure of the national territorial special planning so we actually could integrate the health consideration into this at different levels where we are doing this right now it's trying to provide the health risk analysis and the health resource analysis tool for the national territorial special planning and also we proposed what we call the public health unit based on this 15 minute community life cycle right now the guideline for this 15 minutes community life circle focusing on the ncds the daily health as we know and then those this part is what we proposed for the epidemic emergency and what kind of facilities and agencies we should add and then for the urban design guidelines if you pay attention you may notice we already have a lot like in New York Los Angeles London but for Shanghai for like media size small size cities in China we may develop certain strategies and the standards for them too this is also what we are doing right now and then for me health city planning design is how we could improve the space to reduce the health risks and meet the health demands and then we could better allocate health elements and resources to achieve health equity so this is the sort of the definition I would propose for the health city planning and based on that we also conducted the evidence based practice those are the three projects I'm going and at different special scale the first one is at township and second one is at district level and the third one is sort of the micro urban regeneration and this I just want to show you the last one maybe we can discuss the different scales later and this one is what we call health oriented micro urban regeneration in Kailu new village it's called it's for the community park and it has been listed as the work bank health city design based practice this is sort of the location and this is what you see the bird view and you can see in the past before the regeneration is quite you know need to to be improved and what we are doing is to um beside the the the basic analysis we will do for the community park design we also did the wind field simulation and sunlight simulation and also the the aim to do that is not like in the past to just identify um certain you know the the the bad condition or the to avoid the the less sunlight but we regard the wind field as at certain portion at certain reason a season is the health risk and we regard the sunlight as a health resources and we combine this with the temporal space behavior of different groups of the population and then you have this allocation of the different functions for seniors for the kid garden and for the primary school students and this is sort of the the basic map and we're trying to to promote interaction and sharing and really design this place to promote health for all ages and at the same time we integrate the local users like we have this little planner event to invite the students to do their proposal and to give us an idea how we could revise our our design and then after that we also conducted what we call the health impact assessment to identify what we have achieved for the health promotion for ncd's and also we we consider the the need for the emergency and the sheltering during the possible pandemic in the future and so what I would say that it's very important in healthy city planning to to to promote the integration between the empirical research and the evidence-based practice and also the health impact assessment those are the three very important components for for my lab to do and so at last I want to say that for the future healthy city planning we really need to deal with the challenging how we could promote special intervention for both non-communicable disease and also infectious disease in the same place we should consider the health risks and the health resources and at the same time and eventually we hope we could have better health outcomes and more importantly to to achieve health equity through our planning and and last I want to say that I I want to cite cold to the the the punchline by by the WHO and UN Habitat if you say that if the purpose of the planning is not for human and plant planetary health then what is it for thank you thank you so much professor Wang I will now move on to the q&a session so due to limited time will only be selective on that so I think Ben's question on health planning on villages already answered so let's move to Hoi's question so during the shutdown period in Wuhan people suffered from stress and fear and barely had access to public space so do you think how healthy city planning can actually improve mental health well I think what you are talking about is a very unique or special period right that is something we should have planned for the future for sure because during that time it's sort of all of a sudden we are we are facing that I think in the future we we do need to balance the the usage of green space and and the infectious disease especially during the pandemic I think right now some of the cities are trying to do that is to have sort of the what we call the the time management so for a certain time a certain number of the people could use this space and in this case to lower the frequency of the interaction this is also the challenging I just mentioned we need to balance the people who would like to have social interaction and physical activity but at the same time we have to think about how to lower the frequency of the very close interaction so for me I think those are just the best what we have right now for the community park in the future I think maybe we can think about not only based on the the what we call the smart city technology to allocate the special sources and to certain people a certain number of the people as a certain space but also maybe we can rethink about the shape of the community parks in this way you can have a certain aerial to play um but you can also have the the the comfortable and the security to say that you will not be infected by uh by the disease what I mean is the shape or the layout of the community park maybe rethink about how we could improve in the future great thank you we'll take one last question from Jason so we have paid attention to your healthiness of city for a very long time but the serious pandemic problem currently is still threatened to us what progress we have made during the past hundreds of years well as I just mentioned um I've been planning back in 1900 we we actually provide the guidance and the regulations to guarantee to ensure the enough sunlight and the veneration and you know the zoning we have controlled the far we have to control the distance between cities all those things provide the basic you know health condition for local residents you may you may not think that's a progress but actually back then it's definitely is and then just because of that we feel like an infectious disease may not be so close to the urban residents that is why even WTO is shifting their focus from infectious disease sort of infectious disease to the ncds because you can also notice the ncds the incidence definitely increased a lot like diabetes and respiratory health so what health cct planning did is to to think about how we could promote physical activities and social action in this sense we have the the a lot of desire to promote working bicycling and we think about the accessibility of community parks all those things are actually focusing on this so I think this is a second progress I would say this is also what I said the the health city version one and a health city version two so right now we are facing the challenge to develop and planning health city I think that's what we are doing right now thanks thank you we'll have she find to give us a closing remark for the amazing presentations we have today thanks um for all the insightful presentations that really walk us from the connection of space and time technology climbing mitigation resilience and healthy cities it's really inspiring to see how all these elements are included and integrated for pandemic planning so um we'll end today's forum but the discussion for pandemic planning will remain a heated topic as young professionals who are passionate about cities we look forward to hearing more from scholars and practitioners UCN will continue to facilitate the discussion and keep paying attention to the latest studies that are remarks the end of our forum this year for those who are in person at CGC Beijing please enjoy the reception following help by Columbia Global Center and thanks again for attending and we look forward to seeing you all next year in the next forum thank you and thank you again to our amazing guest speakers thank you Lisa thank you all thank you thank you all
