Abstract
This paper reviews evidence around the relationship between green space, health and wellbeing in the context of universities. It highlights some key mechanisms through which green spaces achieve a positive impact on wellbeing – as spaces for physical activity, as social infrastructures, and as mitigation against the impacts of climate change — to inform the ways in which universities might use and manage their green spaces. It also provides two practical tools for both the public and institutions to reflect on how university green spaces can be managed to better contribute to the health and wellbeing of communities across the UK.
