Nature connection and wellbeing in Australia

Una Devlin
Una Devlin • 1 July 2026

While nature connection has been explored internationally, we know little about how nature connection – and its relationship with wellbeing and pro-environmental behaviours - varies across Australian geographies and demographics. The nature connection project fills this gap by exploring the diverse ways Australians connect with nature and how this relates to their wellbeing and pro-environmental behaviours. In this short report, we share some of the findings from a nationally representative survey on nature connection. This summary report draws from an academic paper available at: https://doi.org/10.31235/osf.io/s74k9
