Understanding inhabitant’s experiences of neighbourhoods to support their health and well-being

Expected Outcome: Project results are expected to contribute to all of the following expected outcomes: Robust evidence on how inhabitants experience their neighbourhood[1] and the impact of these experiences on their health and well-being.
