Nature, Design, and Health: Explorations of a Landscape Architect is a personal narrative of David Kamp’s innovative and internationally influential design philosophy. 

Drawing upon his book of the same title, this webinar chronicles Kamp’s design approach, dedicated to connecting people with nature regardless of their capabilities — from children with autism spectrum disorder to elders with cognitive and physical challenges. He has also explored these ideas in the larger realm, showing how engaging individuals in the stewardship of nature is a critical component of revitalizing hospitals, parks, schools, and communities, and essential to sustaining international programs combating climate change. 

By putting personal health on a continuum with environmental health, Kamp demonstrates how designing with nature is applicable to all design professions and can instill a sense of hope and promise to help us build a more vibrant, resilient, and equitable future.

  • Obtain design strategies that can help form unifying threads between challenging, often conflicting health conditions.

Many attendees of The Center for Health Design’s webinars have inquired about IDCEC approval so they can earn ASID, IIDA, and IDS CEU’s. We have looked into this and unfortunately, the cost to upload courses to IDCEC is simply too high at this time. You can still earn credit for attending our webinars by requesting a verification certificate. As of July 9, 2020, The Center for Health Design requires a CEU management fee for verification certificates for all webinars and EBD Journal Clubs. Please contact Natalie Gonzalez, Project Manager, ngonzalez@healthdesign.org.
