4.7 The language of green care<br />
The terms used in relation to green care in different countries and the<br />
context in which they are used provide some information on the state of<br />
development of the different approaches in those countries. In general,<br />
although this is not a rule, the greater the degree of development of green<br />
care interventions the greater the sophistication of the terminology. As<br />
practices and procedures develop so the terms are created or appropriated<br />
from other fields and pass into general use. The terms used may reflect<br />
the structure and organisation of green care in that country. The Farming<br />
for Health Community of Practice has produced an International Glossary<br />
of Terms for care farming. The scope of the glossary is broad and<br />
encompasses much of the general field and principles of green care.<br />
The glossary can be accessed from the Community of Practice website:<br />
