Nature Based Outdoor Recreation ROI Framework

The project will develop a conceptual framework to quantify the value of nature based recreation. The tool will focus on improvements in physical health, improvements in mental health and health benefits associated with improved ecosystem protection. The tool will provide provincial, municipal and community organizations a mechanism to support informed program, policy and planning decisions and will help users better understand and communicate the value of investments in nature based outdoor recreation.
