Optimising Environmental Health Renewal in Neighbourhoods Based on Traditional Chinese Concepts of Wellness

In the context of the Healthy China 2030 Action Strategy and the post epidemic era, planning scholars have focused on the exploration of the path between traditional health culture and urban neighbourhood renovation and renewal, in order to soundly promote the construction of the planning discipline system. This paper takes the idea of "four-dimensional health" of traditional health culture as the main skeleton, and builds a theoretical system of neighbourhood environmental health from four aspects of neighbourhood environmental planning: spatial layout, traffic and travel, public facilities, and living environment. Dongba Township in Chaoyang District, Beijing is selected as an empirical case for field study, and based on GIS data, we analyse the impacts of people's vitality, facilities and green coverage on health, and then explore the environmental renewal strategies for Dongba Township in combination with the neighbourhood planning dimensions derived from the "four dimensions of wellness". Finally, we propose a universal neighbourhood environmental health regeneration strategy based on the traditional concept of wellness, which will provide new perspectives and breakthroughs for the future of healthy urban planning and other industries.

Abstract

In the context of the Healthy China 2030 Action Strategy and the post epidemic era, planning scholars have focused on the exploration of the path between traditional health culture and urban neighbourhood renovation and renewal, in order to soundly promote the construction of the planning discipline system. This paper takes the idea of "four-dimensional health" of traditional health culture as the main skeleton, and builds a theoretical system of neighbourhood environmental health from four aspects of neighbourhood environmental planning: spatial layout, traffic and travel, public facilities, and living environment. Dongba Township in Chaoyang District, Beijing is selected as an empirical case for field study, and based on GIS data, we analyse the impacts of people's vitality, facilities and green coverage on health, and then explore the environmental renewal strategies for Dongba Township in combination with the neighbourhood planning dimensions derived from the "four dimensions of wellness". Finally, we propose a universal neighbourhood environmental health regeneration strategy based on the traditional concept of wellness, which will provide new perspectives and breakthroughs for the future of healthy urban planning and other industries.
