Western is one of seven U.S. universities—and the first in the Pacific Northwest—to adopt the Okanagan Charter and join the United States Health Promoting Campuses Network, which calls on higher-education institutions to embed health into all aspects of campus culture and to lead health-promotion action and collaboration locally and globally. As part of this commitment, Western has initiated the construction of a Healing Garden at Academic West.
The Healing Garden, designed by Kristi Park of BioDesign Studio and co-created with Western staff and students, will provide a place to rest and rejuvenate within a setting of soft curves, natural materials, plants, seating, lighting, and art.
Give today to support the Healing Garden project and help the University ensure the wellbeing of all members of the Western Community.
