What We Do
The Nature and Health Alliance (NHA) is a research/practice group created to advance and communicate understanding of the health benefits of engaging with nature. We foster efforts to combine research efforts, expand interdisciplinary investigations, and enhance policy work at a national level. The NHA also strives to inform training the next generations of researchers and practitioners. By raising awareness of the human health benefits of nature engagement, we promote reciprocal actions between humans and the health of the environment.
