Discuss THREE activities through which local Governments can ensure the provision of services in a manner that promotes safe and healthy living ​

Promoting healthy communities is at the heart of

what local government is about. It means creating

places and spaces that cultivate belonging, inclusion,

connectedness and engagement. It means creating

a well-planned built environment that supports

healthy behaviours and choices. It means a vibrant

social environment in which people can live, work,

learn and play. In short, it means striving to create

the conditions in which all citizens, no matter where

they are in life, can thrive, now and in the future.

While there are many influences on our lives today,

it is at the local level where policies and plans

are made and can directly affect the health and

well-being of our citizens. Local governments have

a unique role to shape the local conditions that

have an impact on the health of individuals and

communities. My hope is that together we can build

healthy communities across British Columbia.
