Maternal mental health improvement in Ghana: role of green spaces exposure
Our study findings suggest that green space exposure has the potential to attenuate stress, anxiety and depression among mothers. Policies relating to the establishment of green spaces and the maternal utilization of green spaces should be encouraged. Further studies should explore maternal health green space relationships using objective green space measurement.
