SUMMARY:Rooted & Growing Conference
DESCRIPTION:  \nA Conference of Nature Connections\n  \nRooted & Growing is a community gathering to showcase nature-based interventions within the West and North West of Ireland. It will provide a forum to discuss an emerging vision of nature connections to support health and social care outcomes. \nRooted & Growing has been created by a small group of psychologists\, community workers\, researchers and artists that are passionate about the role of nature connections in their work and personal life. \nThis gathering is committed to highlighting the research base and clinical experiences of positive biopsychosocial outcomes for nature-based interventions. It aims to build a network to support the further development of nature connection projects for all in community\, including those living within health and social care settings. \nRooted & Growing will feature talks from leading academics from Maynooth University\, along with psychologists and community workers in the West and Northwest\, who all promote nature connections within their work. There will be opportunities to experience workshops giving practical examples of how nature can be incorporated into clinical practice. A number of these workshops will be hosted by people with lived experience of participating in nature-based interventions. \nRooted & Growing is perfect for professionals working in health and social care settings and policy makers\, who may already be connected to nature in their work or simply nature-curious. This conference has a collaborative and experiential focus\, creating a space for discussion and development of community nature connecting in Ireland. \nThis non-profit event will take place on 29th and 30th July 2026 in Strokestown Park\, County Roscommon.The full Conference programme\, along with workshop choices\, will be available soon. All conference attendees will be notified of the final programme and workshop choices via their email provided.
