This is the fourth of four sessions forming part of a Continuing Professional Development course on Nature Health and Well-being, run by experts from the University of Exeter’s European Centre for Environment and Human Health.
This course will explore how natural environments can benefit the physical and mental health of people in a variety of different ways. It will address the relationship between nature and health, how the relationship works, why these matter for the environment, public health and sustainability, as well as how you can apply these learnings in your own practice.
The course investigates the potential for the natural environment to be harnessed as a resource to improve human health and wellbeing. The potential mechanisms, moderators, and applications for these health benefits will be explored, considering large data sets and key studies linking nature and exposure and health, both within the UK and around the world.
There are no pre-requisites or specialist knowledge required to undertake this course, which is well suited to interdisciplinary learning.
A limited number of places for participants from low- and middle-income countries are available, at a reduced delegate rate of £200 instead of £600.
Please email UEMS_CPD@exeter.ac.uk if you are interested and eligible, as these places will be offered on a first come first serve basis.
