NATURELAB - Nature based interventions for improving health and well-being

NAURELAB将通过调查基于自然的疗法(NBT)的好处来促进健康和支持健康预防和康复，从而促进对绿色和蓝色空间作为医疗保健提供者的认可、促进和使用。来自欧洲和拉丁美洲五个国家(PT、El、NL、DE和PE)农村、沿海和城市地区的15个试验点和4名示范研究员的约4000名参与者将体验NatURELAB NBT方案。参与者将确保具有代表性的性别、年龄和社会经济地位样本。地理位置包括各种气候、自然(绿色和蓝色)、生态系统、生物多样性、文化、政策和行政情景。将解决的健康问题包括身体(高血压)和精神状况(抑郁症)等。NAURELAB提出了一种创新的方法，通过加强绿色和蓝色地区的好处--如适应气候变化的能力，促进生物多样性和城市水资源管理，以及解决空气污染和噪音水平--为有弹性的社区做出贡献。除其他外，该项目将提供：i)为满足不同需求的人口量身定做的NBT方案；ii)对自然的健康潜力进行分类的指标组合，以及根据自然资本核算的要求分析绿色地区健康益处的准则；iv)创建和管理私人和公共疗养花园、园艺/园艺空间的准则，将气候适应能力和环境可持续性融为一体；iv)卫生部门支持NBT的筹资计划方案指南；v)促进公共卫生部门纳入NBT护理的准则。全球约600名卫生专业人员将接受NAURELAB NBT方案，并将提供8 000-10000份创新的教育和培训材料。新的工作岗位--治疗师、园艺和园艺行业--将被开发。

NATURELAB will contribute to increased recognition, promotion and use of green and blue spaces as health care providers, by investigating the benefits of nature-based therapies (NBT) to promote well-being and support health prevention & rehabilitation. Around 4000 participants from 15 Experimental Sites and 4 Demonstrator Fellows located in rural, coastal, and urban areas of five European and Latin American countries (PT, EL, NL, DE, and PE) will experience the NATURELAB NBT programmes. The participants will ensure a representative sample of gender, age and socioeconomic status. The geographic locations comprise a variety of climate, nature (green and blue), ecosystems, biodiversity, cultural, policy and administrative scenarios. The health issues that will be addressed include physical (hypertension) and mental conditions (depression), among others. NATURELAB proposes an innovative approach to contribute to resilient communities, by enhancing the green and blue areas' benefits - as the resilience to climate change, the promotion of biodiversity and urban water management, and addressing as well air pollution and noise levels. The project will deliver, among others: i) NBT programmes tailored to population with different needs; ii) Portfolio of indicators to classify the health potential of nature & Guidelines to analyse the health benefits of green areas as required by natural capital accounting; iv) Guidelines for the creation and management of private and public healing gardens, horticulture/gardening spaces merging climate resilience and environment sustainability; iv) Programme Guide for funding scheme to support NBT in the health sector and v) Guidelines to promote the integration of NB care in the public health sector. Around 600 health professionals worldwide will receive the NATURELAB NBT programmes, and 8000-10000 innovative educational and training materials will be delivered. New jobs - therapists; horticulture & gardening industries -will be exploited.
