Over the past two decades, two seemingly distant fields—positive psychology and biodiversity conservation—have both sought to understand human well-being. In her work, Lisa Garnier explores the intersection of these disciplines, showing through scientific research and statistical evidence how relationships with others and with nature foster serenity and happiness. In this talk, she will present her latest findings, drawing on her extensive experience as a biodiversity specialist, journalist, and contributor to major scientific and environmental projects. The conference is organized by the Sustainability Initiative in partnership with the City of Geneva, the Hoffmann Centre for Global Sustainability, TESS, and the Student Environmental Committee.
Moderated by Joëlle Noailly, the event will be held in French and English.
