Ulrika Stigsdotter

Asa landscape architect and researcher, I am driven by a simple but important question: How can nature become a health resource for all?  Working across Landscape Architecture, Health Design, Environmental Psychology and Universal Design, I explore how evidence-based nature-based solutions can promote health. My research is human- and nature-centered and grounded in a salutogenic perspective.
