Join us Thursday, October 7 at Noon EDT in 369 Willard Building for the next event in the School of Public Policy’s Fall Speaker Series.

Narae Lee, a postdoctoral scholar at the Population Research Institute, will present “Accessible and Walkable Neighborhoods and Psychological Well-being: Analyzing the Relationship using Social Media.”

Lee’s research focuses on understanding the relationship between the built environment and human well-being based on their interactions with surrounding environments. As an urban planner, Lee applies theoretical insights from environmental criminology and environmental psychology to urban planning research to provide design, planning, and policy suggestions that can maximize the overall well-being of urban populations.
