The aim of UrbanKids is to evaluate how changes in the urban and social environment affect weight gain and obesity in children, through a novel moving2health natural experiment approach. For this we will use a large longitudinal cohort of 1 million children and adolescents (aged 0-18 years) in Catalonia, with repeat measures of height and weight, registered in the electronic health records (EHRs) from primary care data between 2011 and 2020. The moving2health approach will focus on children who changed address and who thus provide a unique natural experiment design by changing their neighbourhood environment.
