PASCAL developed the EcCoWell concept in 2012 as an approach to holistic and integrated development in learning cities. Whilst the concept integrates environment, health and well-being, economy, and community with lifelong learning, the core of EcCoWell development up to now has focussed on the integration of health, learning, and environment with community building. The cities of Cork and Taipei have been leaders in applying EcCoWell concepts in their development.
