Abstract Utjecaj stanovanja na zdravlje kompleksan je fenomen. Brojni kemijski, biološki,
fizikalni te socioekonomski čimbenici stanovanja utječu na zdravstveno stanje. Od kemijskih
čimbenika olovo, azbest, radon i ugljikov monoksid mogu se naći u stambenim prostorima i
imati zdravstvene posljedice. Grinje, insekti i glodavci ubrajaju se u biološke čimbenike koji
djeluju na zdravlje jer mogu uzrokovati brojne bolesti. Od fizikalnih čimbenika svakako treba
izdvojiti buku i njene posljedice na zdravlje. Posjedovanje stana, prenapučenost, život u
visokokatnicama su socioekonomski čimbenici koji utječu na kvalitetu života. Postoje brojni
sindromi koji se povezuju sa stambenim prostorom. Najpoznatiji je sindrom bolesne zgrade.
Uglavnom se javlja u novim ili novo preuređenim zgradama sa klimatizacijom ili
ventilacijom, a simptomi koji se javljaju su uglavnom respiratorni, kožni i neurološki. Ostali
sindromi uključuju mnogostruku kemijsku preosjetljivost i elektromagnetsku preosjetljivost,
čiji se simptomi često isprepleću.
Urbani vrtovi te urbana i peri-urbana hortikultura obuhvaća sadnju biljaka u
gradovima i njihovoj okolici. Iako se radi o novom trendu on ima sve značajniji ekonomski,
socijalni i prehrambeni utjecaj, a također i pozitivan utjecaj na okoliš. Na ovaj način povećava
se konzumacija svježeg voća i povrća, povećava se fizička aktivnost onih koji rade u vrtovima
te se oni zbog kontakta s prirodom osjećaju smirenije i opuštenije. Primjenom ove prakse
stvaraju se dodatni izvori prihoda, što je jako bitno za ljude u zemljama u razvoju.
Abstract (english) The way that housing impacts health is a complex phenomenon. There are number of
chemical, biological, physical and socioeconomic factors that can affect health condition.
Chemical factors such as lead, asbestos, radon and carbon monoxide can be found in
residential spaces and may induce health issues. Dust mites, insects and rodents are among the
biological factors that affect health because they can cause a number of diseases. Of physical
factors most important is noise and health consequences it brings. Housing tenure,
overcrowding, life in skyscrapers are socioeconomic factors that affect quality of life. There
are number of syndromes related with housing. The best known is sick building syndrome. It
usually occurs in new or newly renovated buildings with air conditioning or ventilation, and
it's presented with respiratory, skin and neurological symptoms. Other syndromes are multiple
chemical sensitivity and electromagnetic hypersensitivity. Symptoms of these two conditions
are usually intertwined.
Urban gardens and urban and peri-urban horticulture include all horticultural crops
grown within and in the immediate surroundings of cities. Although this is a new trend it has
an important economic, social and nutritional impact, and also a positive impact on the
environment. This practice increases the consumption of fresh fruits and vegetables, increases
physical activity of those who work in the gardens and makes them feel more relaxed because
of their contact with nature. Practicing this creates a source of extra income, which is very
important for people in developing countries.
