In the second episode, we join you from Kuwait City. Built for the car due to its high temperatures in the summer, pedestrian infrastructure and public transportation has taken a bit of a back seat in this city. This has resulted in very high rates of physical inactivity and obesity. However, the winds of change are blowing, as public health and urban design with a focus on walk-ability have now taken center stage in the national agenda.
