Abstract
This paper locates the need for an urban health agenda in a broader so
cial context. This broader context is characterized by increasing dive
rsity and extensive privatization-developments that accentuate tendenc
ies leading away from a shared sense of the common good. The paper the
n outlines ways that Columbia University seeks to work for healthier c
ities in this challenging context.
