We are pleased to announce that the 2nd Partnership Meeting and Workshop for the “Integrating Nature into Higher Education: Forest Bathing” (INHEF) project took place on June 29–30, 2026, in Matera, Italy.

Over the course of the two-day event, the partners successfully completed the full agenda:
– On the first day, participants attended a technical workshop on Forest Bathing at the University of Basilicata in Potenza and visited the forest of Sasso di Castalda with an expert guide.
– On the second day, partners gathered in Matera to review progress on specific Work Packages, including the development of the Forest Bathing Guidebook, quality processes, and dissemination strategies.

The meeting concluded with a walk through the UNESCO “Sassi di Matera” area. We thank all partners for their productive collaboration in achieving the goals of this project.
