Campus Nature Rx Network 

Dr. Tim Beatley is the Teresa Heinz Professor of Sustainable Communities at the University of Virginia and a globally recognized expert on biophilic cities, urban sustainability, and human–nature connection. He is the author of numerous influential books—including Biophilic Cities, The Bird-Friendly City, and Blue Urbanism—and serves as founder and Executive Director of the Biophilic Cities Network, a worldwide community of cities committed to weaving nature into urban environments.

Earlier this year, Dr. Dorothy Ibes (William & Mary), Co-Director of the Campus Nature Rx Network, had an opportunity to interview Dr. Beatley about his teachings and thoughts on bringing biophilia to college campuses.

We at CNRx are developing a new series of educational YouTube videos for our community. These videos will spotlight innovative programs, research, teaching practices, student perspectives, and practical guidance that advance nature engagement across college and university campuses. 

This is a great opportunity to share your work, insights, and experiences with a diverse national and global audience. At this time, we invite you to propose ideas for content. Please complete this form to help us better understand your ideas and how they align with our upcoming video series.
