Abstract
This article aims to present, compare and analyze the notions of Healthy Cities and Smart Cities. To reach it, the methodology used consisted of a review of the literature, which could contribute to the scientific discussions and increase understanding about healthy and/or Smart Cities. Among these notions, there are differences and points in common, as evidenced in this article. Keeping in mind the particularities, in both what is sought is sustainability, quality of life, health and well-being from interventions in the environment and valorization of social capital in an urban and globalized society. It is reiterated that the materialization of this search depends on the efforts of various sectors, institutions and intersectoral policies.
