One in four individuals have suffered mental disorders and more than 80% of them are residing in low-middle income countries. Green space refers to be the place where a person gains the restoration, psychological healing, social reconstruction, relaxation and resilience that contribute to physiological and social development. This study aims at understanding the relationship between green space and mental health in Rwandan context.

Stata will be used to analyze the quantitative data and the factorial analysis will be computed. For qualitative data, spatial analysis and grounded theory analysis will be performed.Pilot study findings will inform impact of green space in mental health restoration in Kigali city
