New research project seeks NRM participants

Do you want to ensure that your NRM work builds resilience for people’s wellbeing as well as for the land? The Healthier Land, Healthier People study is looking at how participating in NRM projects can change the lives of those facilitating the work, the participants, and the broader community.

The researchers are currently seeking case studies to include in the project. Such case studies need to be new NRM projects, involving  multiple landholders or other people working together to address an environmental problem.

Participants in the study will be active partners in helping design and implement the research, which will ensure it provides information the participants want. It will also help the researchers to develop overall recommendations for designing NRM projects to improve the health of people as well as of land.

More detailed information about the project is included in the Information Sheet, available to download below.
