Places: Environmental impact on health
Our research on "Places" focuses on how the built, social, and natural environments influence health and wellbeing. We study the resources available in different spatial contexts and their importance for promoting healthy lifestyles.
By understanding how environments shape health outcomes, we aim to improve the resources available to communities. This includes enhancing access to green spaces, healthy food, and safe, supportive infrastructure. Join us in creating environments that foster health and wellbeing for everyone.
