Adaptation of environment
Adaptation of environment is the process of designing, modifying, and organizing physical, social, and psychological surroundings to ensure accessibility, inclusion, participation, and well-being for all individuals, including persons with disabilities and mental health conditions. In the context of mental health, environmental adaptation aims to reduce barriers, support psychological well-being, promote recovery, and facilitate full participation in community, educational, and occupational life.
