Aren’t Trees Brilliant - Using Collaboration to Communicate the Value of Campus Greenspace

Campus greenspace provides staff and students with a range of health and wellbeing benefits, including opportunities for physical exercise, mental relaxation and social interaction. However, campus greenspace is often threatened by development pressure, including the need to provide state-of-the-art learning facilities to attract prospective students. This interactive workshop explores how collaboration can be used to measure and communicate the benefits provided by campus greenspace. Participants will identify opportunities for communicating the health benefits of campus greenspace in their own institutions and explore opportunities for collaboration. Participants can share their own experiences and draw from different techniques used on the University of Manchester campus.
