The WHO Collaborating Centre for Healthy Cities and Urban Policy, based at the University of the West of England, is formally designated by the World Health Organization Regional Office for Europe. As such, it is linked to a network of over fifty "healthy cities" from across the EU, Eastern Europe and the constituent states of the old USSR. The Centre is one of only five in Europe, and is unique in being based in a built environment faculty rather than a health faculty. The Centre's prime role is to undertake research and provide advice to the Healthy Cities network, particularly in the field of healthy urban planning. However, it also has a major role within the University, acting as a catalyst for the integration of health into the planning and design agenda, and bridging the gap between professions and between research and practice.

The Town & Country Planning Association has published the first papers in a series of worksheets setting out policies that will feed into the masterplans for eco-towns. The worksheets, produced by the TCPA in collaboration with the Department for Communities and Local Government and developed through a series of expert panel seminars, set out recommendations for planners and developers of eco-towns in both public and private sectors. The first three worksheets in the series cover transport, community development and water cycle management.

A one-day conference and exhibition, held on 15 January 2008, was designed to showcase the research being undertaken at the Oxford Institute for Sustainable Development and School of the Built Environment in Oxford Brookes University relating to corporate social responsibility, sustainability and climate change adaptation and mitigation. Drawing on the experience of keynote speakers from the private and public sectors and expert academics in their field, the conference helped to debate, develop and review integrated approaches to business development by responding to these challenges imaginatively and constructively. Final copies of the presentations are available online. These include presentations from the following workshops: Sustainable technology; Counting and reducing carbon emissions; Wellbeing in sustainable environments; Planning, urban design and environmental assessment; Sustainable real estate and construction; and Sustainable urban form and competitive cities.
