S2E3 P&P Dr William Bird. Building Healthier Communities: The Power of Nature and Trust
Dr. William Bird, a GP and founder of Intelligent Health, shows us how our environment shapes our health. He highlights the stark health differences between wealthy and deprived areas and the role of community engagement in overcoming these challenges. With initiatives like Beat the Street, Dr. Bird reveals how simple community-driven activities can get people moving, build trust, and connect people to the natural world. He argues that public health isn't just a government issue – it's about community, nature, and finding new ways to work together.
In this People & Projects episode of the Streets and People
Podcast, Dr. Bird’s journey from medicine to urban health shows how small steps can create big changes. He explains how nature, safety, and trust are the keys to solving the health disparities in our communities. But it’s not enough to have a good idea – it’s about getting everyone on board and making it easy to act.
By listening to this episode, you'll understand how one simple change – like gamifying physical activity – can spark a health revolution. Dr. Bird’s work proves that with the right approach, we can make a lasting impact on public health. If it works in one place, it can work anywhere.
During the episode, we mention Tim Gill's work. You can find Tim's episode here: https://getaroundcaboolture.au/s1e54-pp-tim-gill-on-kids-need-freedom-to-thrive-or-we-risk-losing-more-than-we-know
