Abstract
Urban bioethics pays attention to the design of healthy relationships through the involvement of citizens. The main characteristics of urban bioethics: inclusion, integrity, transdisciplinarity. Involvement is a relentless engaging scriptwriter that is deployed by urban bioethics to explore the everyday application of its principles. Integrity discloses integrative mechanisms for bringing communities together in order to create a development strategy for the city and society in general. Transdisciplinarity explains the mechanism of transcendental space, bringing together a variety of languages, professions, cultures, and etcetera. In this article, we go into examples of bioethical practices that promote the development and implementation of intercultural strategies on an Integrated Bioethics Platform, which can be found in the city both - online and offline. We also make suggestions on the leading types of behavior that are indoctrinated by this platform: networking; involvement through art; awareness of public space and one’s place/one’s self; educational practices.

Summary
Urban bioethics pays attention to the design of healthy relationships through the involvement of citizens. This relates to people from the deprived social groups: immigrants and refugees; children; elderly people; individuals that suffer from/have survived complicated diseases or severe injuries; individuals that find themselves in a state of social maladjustment because of crimes (victims of human trafficking, exploitation, violence, etc.), but generally all citizens-«observers»/ citizen-«spectators» or strong critics»/«neutral observer» We suggest for such a city implementation of a certain plan of actions that would prioritize problem areas and lead to practical initiatives and/or broaden the opportunities of including all citizens into the economical, social and civil city life. The main accent is set on the unification of communities with the general aim of forming a development strategy[10], Figure 2 Such unities may create initiatives (through inviting of professionals from bioethics and behavioral economics or psychology, or even stand-up comics - healthy satire draws attention to necessity in behavior change) in order to discuss narratives regarding «complicated questions». Such approach may detect population groups that lack «urban advantages» and are subjects of risk
