The nexus between urban planning and public health acknowledges the importance of creating cities that contribute to their residents' physical, mental, and social well-being. The Healthy Cities movement underlines that community participation and intersectoral work are important to create sustainable, equitable, and healthy cities.Several theoretical and practical participatory approaches form the foundation for participation in public health and urban planning. Growing digitalization has significantly transformed how participation is conducted in various fields. Digital technologies not only play a large role in daily life, but they have opened more opportunities for individuals to interact, share, and collaborate in the planning and design of cities.This article explores how digital technologies enable participation among residents and stakeholders in order to support the health-oriented planning of cities and neighborhoods. From the selective case studies presented in the paper, it can be ascertained that digital technologies can support various forms of participation by enabling different levels of engagement as well as both one-way and two-way interactions. Some forms of engagement can be supported entirely within digital platforms. However, in the case of higher engagement, which requires deeper insights into the problems and the codevelopment of solutions, other nondigital formats and traditional methods such as follow-up workshops and focus group discussions are necessary to complement the digital form of participation.
城市规划与公共卫生之间的联系认识到建设有助于居民身心健康和社会福祉的城市的重要性。健康城市运动强调，社区参与和跨部门合作对于创建可持续、公平和健康的城市至关重要。几种理论和实践参与方法构成了公共卫生和城市规划中参与的基础。日益增长的数字化显著改变了各个领域的参与方式。数字技术不仅在日常生活中发挥着重要作用，而且为个人在城市规划和设计中的互动、分享和合作提供了更多机会。本文探讨数字技术如何促进居民和利益相关者的参与，以支持以健康为导向的城市和社区规划。从本文所呈现的案例研究可以确定，数字技术通过实现不同程度的参与以及单向和双向互动，能够支持各种形式的参与。有些参与形式可以完全在数字平台内得到支持。然而，对于需要更深入洞察问题和共同制定解决方案的更高程度的参与，其他非数字形式和传统方法，如后续研讨会和焦点小组讨论，对于补充数字参与形式是必要的。
