Nature and Animal Assisted Interventions

Om utbildningen

Nature- and animal-assisted interventions integrate natural elements and companion animals into programs aimed at prevention, promotion, treatment, or rehabilitation for various target groups. These programs can be conducted indoors or outdoors, making them adaptable to different settings. This course will give students insight into the latest knowledge and practices in nature- and animal-assisted interventions. They will learn how natural elements and companion animals contribute to human health and well-being. The course is structured into two main sections: the first focuses on the interaction between humans and plants and other natural elements. In contrast, the second emphasizes the relationship between humans and companion animals. The course includes lectures, literature seminars, study visits, project work, exercises, and the review of scientific papers. It is divided into four modules, with some compulsory online components that will also be part of the assessment.
