SDG XI Hackathon 2025 Topic: Healthy Cities

SDG 3– Good Health & Well-Being

Subtopic: Smart Healthcare Access

Develop AI tools that identify underserved urban areas with poor access to clinics or hospitals.

Prototype: Pollution-aware route planner

Name: UrbanCare

AI-Powered Pollution-Aware Smart Healthcare Access Platform

Integrating Air Quality, Traffic & Health for Healthier Cities

Background: Urban Health Crisis

Project Idea

1 The Growing Urban Health Problem

Rapid urbanization is worsening air pollution & traffic congestion
Long-term exposure to:
PM2.5, CO₂, NO₂ will incur Respiratory & cardiovascular diseases
Heavy traffic causes:
Delayed emergency response
Higher stress & accident risks
Existing open data is not integrated in real-time for health decisions

✅ Result: Vulnerable urban communities remain exposed.

2 Problem Statement

What Problems Are We Solving?

People unknowingly travel through high-pollution routes
Traffic congestion delays emergency access to hospitals
Some communities are far from clinics & located in high-risk zones
City planners lack real-time, integrated healthcare accessibility insights
Lack of transparency on hospital capacity and ambulance availability reduces emergency care efficiency.

⚠ Current systems treat pollution, traffic, and healthcare as separate problems.
