Central to our mission is the art of relational facilitation within complex social contexts, supported through critical thinking, developing novel strategies for working with marginalised populations.

We provide a supportive research environment, empowering students to flourish and engage in creative inquiry and scientific investigation grounded in arts and health science principles. Moreover, we advocate for creative exploration in understanding health change within the socio-political context, recognising its potential to impact global issues.
