An initiative of the BC Parks Foundation, PaRx is Canada’s national evidence-based nature prescription program that works with healthcare professionals to prescribe time in nature for patient and planetary health. Launched in 2020, PaRx is scaling at a rapid pace with more than 15,000 prescribers registered across the country and support from more than 100 major health and parks organizations. This webinar will discuss the science behind nature prescriptions, how to incorporate the principles of nature prescriptions into your work, and how to prioritize your own nature habit for your health.
