Blue Sky Funders Forum is proud to collaborate with the Climate Mental Health Network and OneGreenThing to bring you the first chapter of our ongoing Nature = series, where we’ll explore how human health and well-being are impacted by access to and time spent in the outdoors. Join us on March 27 from 1 – 2:30 pm ET.

We’ll highlight the latest research connecting time outside and tangible health benefits like easing anxiety, lowering blood pressure, and disease prevention. Then we’ll be joined by inspiring activists, nonprofit leaders, and community members working to ensure that access to the outdoors and these benefits are seen as a basic human right, and not as a “nice to have” for the most privileged.
