This paper explores perceptions of health, the environment, and the relationships between them, in a programme of community forestry. Drawing on qualitative data generated within a multi-disciplinary project, the paper discusses the difficulties of conceptualising the key variables utilised in research on the links between green space and health. Health and the environment were not discrete entities that could be mapped on to one another, but fluid and contested concepts. A simple model of the 'impact' of environment on health could not do justice to the ways in which 'use' of outdoor space is a process, not an event.
本文探讨了在一个社区林业项目中，人们对健康、环境以及它们之间关系的认知。基于一个多学科项目中产生的定性数据，本文讨论了在对绿地与健康之间联系的研究中，概念化关键变量所存在的困难。健康和环境并非可以相互映射的离散实体，而是流动且存在争议的概念。一个关于环境对健康“影响”的简单模型，无法公正地呈现户外空间的“使用”是一个过程而非一个事件的方式。
