Invisible aspect of planning and health

Abstract

Zoning under the land use planning neglects the environmental issues such as groundwater, soil contamination, etc. Land use planning along with infrastructure directly can improve the health of people. This thesis using mixed-method approach tries to identify groundwater scenarios with its health-related risks in land use planning and associated environmental infrastructure. It analyses the interface between ground water and land use and its impact on health. It comes out how the interface between land use and health can improve in the future.
