Until recently\, emphasis has been place on social and institutional constructs while the physical environment has largely been overlooked.  Th e discourse is changing however\, largely though the efforts of those sens itized to how the natural environmental can serve as a protective or risk factor in human health and well-being.  In this presentation\, we will dra w on literature\, research and practice to argue for the inclusion of the natural environment in social work models of health and well-being in Mont real and in Northern Cree communities.  We will invite attendees to reflec t with us on the place of the natural environment in the social determinan ts of health model. \n\nFor more information on CRCF's research seminars\, please click here.\n DTSTART:20160316T160000Z DTEND:20160316T170000Z LOCATION:Wendy Patrick room (room 118)\, Wilson Hall\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 2A7\, 3506 rue University SUMMARY:Research Seminar: The natural environment: Is this a social determi nant of health?
