Description
Mental health and wellbeing from nature connection in cities

There is increasing evidence that people’s health and wellbeing are positively linked to access to green and blue spaces, and opportunities for nature connection. Yet this is becoming more challenging in our higher density cities and urban environments.

We tackle these key questions:

  • what is the evidence connecting nature and to mental health and wellbeing?
  • how do we design our cities to enable nature connection for urban residents?
  • where has this worked and what can we learn to enhance community wellbeing?

Chaired by Lucy Brogden AM, Member of Smart Green Cities Advisory Panel and Independent Board Member at Corporate Mental Health Alliance, this industry event will bring together professionals across academia, community not for profits, government and industry.

A networking morning tea will be provided.
