Offer:
We would be interested in working with any organisation wishing to investigate the health and wellbeing benefits of experiences in nature. We currently have a few ongoing projects focusing on the psychological health and wellbeing benefits and while we are open to new ideas we specialise in mixed methods, multi-disciplinary approaches based on a new theoretical framework that focuses on the relationship between an individual and a behavioural environment.
We are currently working on understanding how best to ‘design’ natural environments and experiences (e.g. in limited urban spaces) to maximise the benefits of nature experiences, especially when they are limited.
