We at ECEHH run a Continuing Professional Development course, Nature, Health and Well-being. The next course dates have just been announced. It will run virtually on Zoom over four days on from 9:00 – 13:00 (UK time) on the 20th, 23rd, 27th, 30th March 2023 from the comfort of your home and/or office without the need to travel.   

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.  

Over the four days we will investigate 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 discussed, considering large data sets and key studies linking nature and exposure and health, both within the UK and around the world.  

The CPD course will be led by national and international experts from The European Centre for Environment and Human Health. There are no pre-requisites or specialist knowledge required to undertake this course, which is well suited to interdisciplinary learning.
