Noah Fried

Noah recently completed his master’s degree in psychology at the University of Vienna and is now a research assistant at the Urban and Environmental Psychology Research Group. Motivated by the opportunity to utilize environmental psychology to inform sustainable policy and urban planning, his studies focused on mental health and wellbeing benefits associated with nature contact. This led to his thesis on specific health benefits following visits to different bodies of water, using data from the BlueHealth international survey.

As part of the Horizon Europe project SOS-ZEROPOL2030, he now works closely with the Environmental Psychology Group on various research endeavours.
