In Brief: Young people’s socio-cultural values in relation to trees outside woodland

Young people have not been well represented in discussions about trees outside woodlands in peri-urban and rural areas (ToWPUR). This has resulted in their experiences and attitudes being overlooked in policy frameworks and management strategies for these landscapes.

The research reported in this In Brief addresses this gap by examining young people’s experiences of, and relationships with, ToWPUR, exploring their socio-cultural values and their specific value orientations.
