Register for the Healthy Environments, Healing Spaces Conference

University of Virginia:
“What do we know about how the environments in which we live affect our health? What are examples of projects, plans, policies and programs promoting health through design? What questions do we still have? On March 17th and 18th, landscape architects, architects, planners, and medical professionals will come together to talk about how designing healthcare facilities, community food systems, environments that promote aging in place, active urban form, and nature in cities can promote human health. Each speaker will present the latest in the field and forecast the future directions of the discipline. Respondents will follow up the presentation with critical questions and further insights.”
Registration is free.  Please register here. AICP credits available.
