Activities in natural environments greatly enhance human well-being and can support the integration of foreigners into a new country. This article explores how residents from different ethnic backgrounds in Turku, Finland appreciated and engaged with urban natural environments and how this engagement benefitted their well-being and, ultimately, their integration. Individuals enjoy activities in nature in particular ways, which may vary according to a person’s physical, social, and psychological characteristics. This is especially true for immigrants who apply traditions from their home countries to the ways in which they interact with their new environment and enjoy activities in nature. Three dimensions of nature experience—social, emotional, and normative—emerged from the research, which, in turn, supported well-being and different types of integration: interactive, identificational, and cognitive. We argue that because these dimensions are an integral part of a person’s identity and cultural background, familiarity with them may prove pivotal to constructing more welcoming and intercultural urban natural environments. Different approaches to engaging with nature should be considered in the design of urban environments and urban nature, as well as in integration programmes, to enhance the well-being and integration of foreign-background populations.

城市自然的多维性:芬兰移民的福祉和融合

自然环境中的活动极大地提高了人类福祉,可以支持外国人融入一个新的国家。本文探讨了芬兰图尔库不同种族背景的居民如何欣赏和参与城市自然环境,以及这种参与如何有益于他们的福祉,并最终促进他们的融合。个人以特定方式享受大自然中的活动,这些方式可能因人的身体、社会和心理特征而异。对于那些将本国传统应用到他们与新环境互动和享受大自然活动的方式的移民来说尤其如此。自然体验的三个维度——社会的、情感的和规范的——从研究中出现,反过来,支持幸福感和不同类型的整合:互动、认同和认知。我们认为,由于这些维度是一个人的身份和文化背景不可或缺的一部分,因此熟悉它们可能对构建更受欢迎和跨文化的城市自然环境至关重要。在城市环境和城市自然的设计以及融入计划中,应考虑与自然接触的不同方法,以提高外国背景人群的福祉和融入。
