Join Aura and Ella from UK Youth for Nature as we explore the links between our wellbeing and nature!
Each episode features a guest who shares their experience of nature's impact on wellbeing and what can be done to ensure we all have a fair chance to feel good. Each title is a word with importance to the guest!
You can also watch our podcast (beautifully animated) on our youtube channel, search UK Youth for Nature!
This podcast ties into our Nature Nearby campaign, illustrating the importance of access to nature for all.
In this episode, Ella and Aura speak to Monica about her experience as a woman in natural spaces. They focus on urban spaces especially and try to look pragmatically for solutions. We at UKY4N recognise that this conversation is a tiny part of a larger conversation and that there are important questions we did not address. It is designed to provoke thoughts about nature and its importance and is not a comprehensive review of nature and gender but ideas from three people's lives.
