Designing regions, cities, neighbourhoods and islands that are conducive to health also means supporting major transformations of the health system.
Designing regions, cities, neighbourhoods and islands that are conducive to health also means supporting major transformations of the health system, by locally developing solutions that meet
current challenges: development of outpatient care, multi-professional grouping of practitioners, optimisation of medical time, development of prevention approaches and a comprehensive approach to health promotion, emergence of e-health to combat the compartmentalisation of the health system, medical desertification, the lack of private practices and the saturation of the emergency services.
With the digital ecosystem, we are transitioning to a new paradigm which is revolutionising our economic models, our lifestyle, and our habits. New opportunities are opening up for us in different areas such as shared usage, mobility, energy, citizen involvement, and community living.
The ageing population is not a new topic, but due to the acceleration and scale of the phenomenon over the coming ears, we must study this challenge and analyse its consequences for the housing supply.
Towns and cities are forged in the crucible of multiple communities and usage patterns, and grow with them. In this way, inhabitants build a future as they take control of their daily lives.

No aspect of housing has been spared, they are all being reinvented in accordance with three overarching principles: housing that is agile and custom-built, housing that is shared and open to the rest of the city, and housing that is sustainable and resilient.
Designing regions, cities, neighbourhoods and islands that are conducive to health also means supporting major transformations of the health system.
Time, an essential aspect of our lives, is a somewhat overlooked entry key in the development and management of the city. While space has often been organised to save time, rarely has time been organised to save space. More generally, the chronotopic approach combining space and time remained marginal for a long time. But times are changing!
Campuses are transmuting under the effects of the digital revolution; the push for sustainable development; greater flows of people, goods and information in the wake of globalization; evolving economic and governance models; higher demand for lucrative degrees; and more competitive labour markets – forces that are also changing the means of education and the makeup of students.
