Princess of Wales nature-based childhood study

Overview

The Princess of Wales has launched a new initiative through the Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood to study how the natural world influences the social and emotional development of infants and young children. The project aims to apply scientific research to natural spaces to foster healthy development, particularly as a countermeasure to the digital age.

The initiative is supported by the Duchy of Cornwall. The announcement follows findings from a Centre for Early Childhood survey, which noted a gap between parental belief and practice: while 84% of parents believe nature benefits child development, only 33% report that their children spend time in nature on a daily basis.
