Objectives for Session
Build an Inclusive Team
• Build partnerships with diverse policy sectors, levels of government, and communities as early as possible– Will need data from a wide range of sectors and levels of
government to analyse health inequities in your city– An inclusive approach helps build political commitment
• Team building may be the most time-consuming step in the process, but may also be the most important step
An Urban HEART Team
• A network of agencies and individuals informed and ready to participate in Urban HEART
• Agreements to consider resource sharing/resource allocations
• Endorsement of tool by one or more influential champions
• Terms of reference
• Momentum to proceed!
Who should be involved?• Social, economic and health policy stakeholders who have
authority to share data
• If new funding will be required for interventions, engage the finance departments early on
• All relevant levels of government planning
• Community leaders, elected officials, NGOs
• People who have experience analysing large datasets
Stakeholder Analysis Activity
Brainstorming on Urban HEART team
• Who should be on the proposed Urban HEART team for your city?
• What are the steps to get the stakeholders involved?
• What are the resources needed to begin building a team in your city?
Exercise on ranking stakeholders
• Prioritize the stakeholders in terms of their comparative importance and ease of getting them onto the Urban HEART team
Rank stakeholders in terms of: • how difficult is it to engage them to join the Urban HEART
team (from 1 to 10, in ascending degree of difficulty)• the relative importance for their inclusion on the Urban
HEART team (from 1 to 10, in ascending degree of importance)
Complete the table in the following slide
Stakeholder Roles and
ResponsibilitiesDifficulty in engaging
stakeholder (1=Easiest...10=Hardest)

More questions for thought
• Are there any existing agencies that focus on health equities in cities?
• Is Urban HEART recognized by any agencies or local authorities?
