Enhancing Smell Culture Awareness

This project promotes smell culture awareness through community building and public engagement.

This proposal unites UCL's faculties of the Built Environment, Computer Science, and Medical Sciences to enhance awareness and policymaking regarding the significance of smell for wellbeing through workshops and public events. Building on the Smell Care project, led by Professor Marianna Obrist, the initiative aims to address the neglect of the sense of smell in various fields and promote innovative approaches for rehabilitation and public understanding. Collaborations with organizations like Fifth Sense and Future Care Capital will facilitate outreach, aiming to foster a culture of smell care and improve overall quality of life.
