Rising Mental Health Issues Among Urban Youth
Young people in Malaysian cities are increasingly facing depression, anxiety, and stress due to urban pressures, social isolation, and disconnection from nature.

Urban Heat Island (UHI) and Poor Environmental Quality
Dense urban development, limited greenery, and high surface temperatures create uncomfortable and stressful environments that affect both physical and mental well-being.

Lack of Restorative and Inclusive Green Spaces
Existing community parks often prioritize recreation over emotional recovery, offering limited integration of Nature-Based Solutions (NbS) that promote ecological resilience and psychological restoration.

Week 1:
This week focused on identifying the research problem, key issues, and formulating the research title. I learned to analyze how urbanization, environmental stress, and mental health challenges among youth are interrelated. Defining the problem helped me understand the real significance of the study and how the research title should reflect both ecological and social concerns.

Week 2:
I worked on developing the research aim, objectives, and expected findings. Through this process, I learned how to create clear and achievable objectives that directly support the main research aim. I also gained a better understanding of how the expected findings can contribute to improving urban well-being through Nature-Based Solutions and therapeutic landscape design.

Week 3:
This week, I outlined the research methodology, reviewed relevant case studies, and explored the anticipated outcomes. I learned how to apply suitable methods such as surveys, interviews, and site observations to collect meaningful data. Studying related case studies also helped me visualize how similar approaches have been successfully implemented, guiding me toward developing an effective design framework for my own research.
