Representatives from national?and?local government, health officials, experts?and?business representatives are attending this event. ? ? We agree that exchanges among U.S.-China sister cities act as an important bridge for enhancing friendship?and?cooperation at the local level, as well as a cornerstone for advancing the China-U.S. relationship. This forum is a concrete follow-up on the consensus reached by President Obama?and?President Xi during their meeting in September 2016, as well as the deliverables from the 8th China-U.S. Strategic?and?Economic Dialogue?and?the 7th U.S.-China Consultation on People-to-People Exchange. We believe this forum will further strengthen cooperation in the development, management,?and?service delivery of healthy cities, foster people-to-people exchanges,?and?further accelerate overall practical cooperation between the two countries. ? ?? We recognize that health is a necessary requirement in realizing the overall development of individuals,?and?a core impetus for social?and?economic sustainable development, a significant indicator of national prosperity,?and?a common pursuit for both of our countries’ citizens. Cities play a critical role in advancing?and?protecting their citizens’ health. Supporting healthy cities encourages both countries to address common problems, challenges,?and?opportunities related urbanization, aging, of the population, emerging non-communicable?and?infectious diseases,?and?environmental?and?lifestyle changes. It is also a reflection of a strong sense of responsibility, urgency,?and?mission in the evolution of public health practice. ? ?? The 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda adopted by United Nations in September 2015 sets important goals for global health development. In this context, we propose the following approaches to promote development of healthy cities under the 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda Framework: 1.Strive to improve health policies. Local governments may play a substantial role in adopting action plans?and?strategies tailored to local conditions; to address basic needs of local residents including education, housing, employment,?and?safety; to optimize health services;?and?to provide a more equitable?and?sustainable social security system. ? ? 2.Seek to utilize health policies?and?strategies to encourage the building of healthy environments, which may lead to eliminating air, water,?and?soil pollution; improving urban environmental sanitation;?and?making cities more livable?and?healthier built environments. 3.Effectively engage social organizations?and?other partners for healthy city development. This calls for active participation from communities?and?individuals to contribute through concrete actions on urban environmental enhancement. ?? 4.Educate about?and?promote healthy lifestyles?and?improving the health literacy of the general public.? Participants from both countries commit to strengthen cooperation through the sister cities program including: ? 1.Taking into consideration the actual needs of local, advance cooperation on health, trade, education, culture,?and?tourism. 2.Facilitating healthy city exchanges between the two countries, organizing mutual visits?and?study tours among officials, experts,?and?scholars to exchanging views?and?share experiences to foster healthy city development in both countries.
