Join us for a discussion about changes taking place in our essential outdoor spaces, well being and connection to green spaces.

Recent shifts in putting mature gardens on top of and on the sides of buildings, amazing public terraces and expansions of rooftop gardens for residential and commercial structures all demonstrate the changes taking place in our essential outdoor spaces. In our gardening-friendly tropical and sub-tropical climate, we are seeing city wide localised neighbourhood farming and urban design growing the areas people can access for recreation. This design in landscapes is so important to our wellbeing, as is home and community-gardening. It is essential to think about the contribution to people’s wellbeing in designing outdoor spaces. What should we think about in this context?
