 net: how to Design with care and for whom?\n\n Defining what health habit
 ats entail is challenging as there are multiple variables to address in mo
 ving towards healthier spaces. The spatial dimensions certainly contribute
 \, especially if supported by programmatic interventions. Designing Health
 y Habitats requires both engaging spaces through multiple scales over time
  and mapping risk factors at all socio-ecological levels.\n\nThis leads to
  the question: healthy habitats\, for whom? Under the planetary pressure
  of Transitioning\, designing with care is paramount. How to design Health
 y Habitats while sharing the responsibility for caring for our world. The 
 series/lunch focuses on exploring what healthy habits entail and the contr
 ibution of design practices in fostering healthy habitats.\n\nSpeakers and
