Elijah Matthew Donovan-Thompson is a writer and an Associate Professor of Environmental Studies at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver. He also holds a joint appointment in UBC’s Department of Geography.
In October 2024, Elijah's latest book, "Urban Roots: The Impact of Green Spaces on Urban Well-being," was released by Oxford University Press. This book delves into how green spaces within cities can significantly influence residents' mental health and community cohesion, drawing from his extensive research in environmental psychology.
Elijah's work has been showcased in numerous prestigious journals such as Nature Sustainability, Landscape and Urban Planning, and the Journal of Environmental Psychology. His research has not only enriched academic circles but has also caught the attention of mainstream media outlets like CBC Radio, NPR, and Al Jazeera. Articles about his findings have appeared in publications such as The Guardian, National Geographic, and Wired Magazine. Through his engaging public lectures and media appearances, Elijah continues to bridge the gap between scientific research and everyday life, inspiring people to rethink the role of nature in urban settings.
