Our collaboration with Cities for Better Health and this foodscape study starts with two simple questions: what is the relationship between the food system and the urban environment, and how might we achieve a positive dietary shift at the neighborhood level through local interventions and strategies? This report is the culmination of a seven-month collaboration with Cities for Better Health and three of their network cities — Bogota, Houston and Philadelphia. This report focuses on Philadelphia.
