Appenzeller-Winterberger, C. | Kaufmann-Hayoz, R.(Universitaet Bern, Bern (Switzerland). Interfakultaere Koordinationsstelle fuer Allgemeine Oekologie)
The present article throws light on both the functions assigned to the forests in Switzerland and the connection between forests and human health and well-being. On the basis of the review study by GASSER AND KAUFMANN-HAYOZ 2005), we then illustrate in which scientific fields, research, initiatives and projects exist. This overview shows that forests in Switzerland are considered to have important health-promoting influences. It also becomes evident that more intensive research into the connection between forests and human health would be worthwhile.
