Miguel Torga Institute and Bussaco Forest Foundation team up on forest therapy research

The Instituto Superior Miguel Torga (ISMT) and the Fundação Mata do Bussaco signed a collaboration protocol on Thursday 8 October at the Foundation's premises in Luso. The agreement sets up a project called "Floresta Terapêutica" (Therapeutic Forest) and is meant to open the way to future partnerships in training. It aims to study how contact with the forest environment affects areas such as health, well-being and education.
