Mixed‐methods systematic review exploring the associations underpinning active outdoor play with connection to nature and environmental stewardship

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Active outdoor play has been positioned in the literature as an opportunity to address concerns over climate (in)action and the rising trend of disconnection from the outdoors and nature. The objective of this systematic review was to examine associations between active outdoor play and people's connection to nature and/or environmental ...
