Balancing nature and health for the future

The European Centre for Environment and Human Health (ECEHH) is celebrating 10 years of conducting world-class research

As we face the realities of a climate and environmental emergency, there is a growing global recognition that nature and humans depend on one another and the wellbeing of both are finely balanced. But how can we as communities work better together to find solutions to benefit both?

This final session in the Peninsula Forum series will focus on the risks and rewards that the environment can pose to our health and wellbeing and ask what more can be done to maximise the benefits.

Discover how our pioneering research and collaborative approach is identifying solutions to benefit both nature and people and influencing local, national and international policy-change.
