Healthy Development Measurement Tool

The HDMT is a comprehensive evaluation metric to consider health needs in urban development plans and projects. Evaluation of plans or projects against measurable indicators and development targets provides information about both the positive and negative ways in which health is impacted by a proposed development project. This helps to bring attention to the ways that development can improve population health, allowing those involved in policy- and decision-making to make more informed choices between development trade-offs.
