Invited Abstract Categories



The theme for ICTH 2022 is "​​Looking upstream to identify downstream Social Determinants of Health." ​Abstracts are invited on the general headings below with sub-headings indicating the specific categories; all within the overarching theme of transport and health. Note that an "Other" category will be included under each main heading. The overall theme is the impact of transport (and urban/rural) planning and design on quality of life, health and well-being in communities.



Transport and Health Behaviour

·     Disruptive mobility & cultural shifts

·     Gender and Transport



Innovative Technologies

·     Transport Network Companies (TNC); Uber, Lyft and others

·     Technologies to assist active travel (i.e., Wayfinding apps, etc.)

·     Infrastructure adaptations & technologies

·     Electric vehicles (including e-bikes)

·     Infrastructure for transport beyond the private car (i.e., walking/cycling) ​



If you do not see a specific transport and health abstract category that your abstract fits, submit it anyway under the "Other" category option. The ICTH Programme Committee will take a look and figure out a way to work your unique research into the programme. The ICTH platform is all about a different way of thinking.​



And if you have any suggestions for organisations or people we can ask for sponsorship for the Cardiff event, please let Cahrlie or me know.

Thanks

I deal with emails when it is convenient for me to do so; recipients should respond only during working hours unless they prefer to work at other times.

I now work part-time: currently I usually do not work on Mondays, nor Wednesday and Friday afternoons.



I am currently working from home most of the time.
