Samenvatting

Well-planned urban space can have a significant effect on mental well-
being. Social cohesion and isolation are essentially geographic concepts
expressing proximity and distance, which are related to spatial interaction
patterns in addition to social interaction patterns. People-centred spatial
planning alleviates social isolation. Mobility, green spaces and accessible
meeting places facilitate social cohesion.
