This book provides a model for the creation of sustainable and
healthy cities in the Mediterranean region. It uses the coastal
city of L'Alfas del Pi in Spain as an example for designing
renewable and innovative urban models that offer high standards of
living, wellbeing and eco-friendly advantages. Quantitative and
qualitative analyses are presented by scholars in a wide variety of
fields to provide a thorough understanding of the social, cultural,
economic, political, physical, environmental and public health
influences, through the case study of L'Alfas del Pi. L'Alfas del
Pi has a geographically unique population made of a mixture of
local inhabitants and Northern European residents attracted by the
weather conditions and the sea. The chapters in this book explore a
series of innovative proposals for addressing concerns in the area,
including historic preservation, sustainable transportation,
promoting health and physical activity and water conservation. The
methodology establishes a strategic approach that serves as a
useful reference point for coastal cities, particularly in
Mediterranean countries, in the creation of sustainable and healthy
cities. This book will appeal to researchers across the disciplines
of tourism, planning, health geography, architecture and urban
studies.
