It is with great pleasure to learn that INFTA has been awarded a Study Melbourne Inclusion Program grant by the Department of Jobs, Skills, Industry and Regions in Victoria to conduct Forest Therapy sessions for hundreds of international students. INFTA appreciates the support of the Royal Botanic Gardens Melbourne where these sessions will be conducted in August 2024.
The aim of the proposed project is to alleviate stress prevalent among international students and offer them an opportunity to connect with each other, develop an appreciation for the environment and become more nature-connected.
