- Abstract in English : This paper explores how increased interest, anecdotal evidence, and research attention over recent times have helped to highlight design and management approaches that are particularly successful in creating landscapes that aim to provide benefits to people’s well-being. There is a particular focus on people who are often excluded from contact with the natural world because of disability, age, or background, and for whom therefore the benefits can be especially important.
