I mitt arbete som forskare inom miljöpsykologi arbetar jag med konceptutveckling och vetenkapliga utvärderingar av naturbaserade och naturunderstödda interventioner som bedrivs i olika utemiljöer för olika målgrupper samt innehåll och utformning av hälsofrämjande utomhusmiljöer. Dofter och doftlandskapet är jag speciellt intresserad av och hur dofter kan bidra till välbefinnande och stressreducering. Nu har vi nytt Formas financierad forskningsprojekt avseende dofter i urbana miljöer https://www.slu.se/lukt-fran-naturen läs mer på denna sida.
2016-2020 har jag varit ansvarig forskare för tre studier kring naturbaserad integration för nyanlända i Skåne. Arbetet är i samverkan med Arbetsförmedlingen, Skogsstyrelsen i Skåne och Xenofilia i Botildenborg.
Sedan 2007 har jag specifikt forskat i Alnarps rehabiliteringsträdgård, som fallstudie, där focus har varit på tre huvudmålgrupper (3 olika studier); naturbaserad rehabilitering för individer med stress-relaterad mental ohälsa (som doktorand); individer som lider post-stroke mental trötthet (som post-doc) och nyanlända i behov av arbetslivsinriktad rehabilitering (forskningsledare).
In my work as a researcher in environmental psychology, I work with conceptual development and scientific evaluations of nature-based and nature-supported interventions that are conducted in various outdoor environments for different target groups. I also conduct research on the content and design of health-promoting outdoor environments and how we can shape and build sustainable places for health and well-being.
Since 2007 I have been specifically with research at Alnarp Rehabilitation Garden as a case study where the focus has been on three main target groups; individuals recovering from stress-related mental disorders (as Ph.D.), individuals recovering from Post-stroke fatigue (as a post-doc), and migrants in need of vocational rehabilitation (as a principal investigator).
Since 2016, I have been a responsible researcher for three studies on nature-based integration for new arrivals in Skåne. The work is in collaboration with the Swedish Public Employment Service, the Swedish Forest Agency in Skåne, and Xenofilia in Botildenborg.
Associate professor in environmental psychology of landscape architecture and Senior lecturer in Natur-based interventions, at the dept. People and Society.
