Future cities will reshape human behavior in countless ways. Persuasive urban systems will play an important role in making cities more livable and resource-efficient by addressing current environmental problems and enabling healthier routines. Therefore, future research should be directed towards exploring how urban design might be combined with persuasive technology and socially influencing systems to encourage healthy behaviors at scale. We invited researchers and practitioners to contribute with their ideas and insights to the Empowering Cities for Sustainable Wellbeing workshop. Keynotes were held by the workshop organizers. The nine presentations held during the workshop were complemented by short research papers, out of which seven met out criteria for publishing and are hence presented in this workshop proceeding. We would like to thank all who contributed to the success of this workshop.
