Urban planning has formed a binomial with health since its origins as a discipline. The demands derived from the welfare society, environmental sustainability and the health circumstances of COVID-19 testify to the need to update this relationship. The aim of the URB_HealthS project is to study the ways of endorsing health in the contemporary city through the urban design of public space. A knowledge transfer model between the academy and the local society in the field of urban health and public space has been defined , whose theoretical structure and implementation in three European localities is presented.
