HEALTHART II: Integrating Indigeneity
FY 2013-14
Summary
Café Scientifque 'HEALTHART II: Integrating Indigeneity' will promote, in the traditionally underserved geography of north-central British Columbia, which has the highest percentage of First Nations peoples per capita in British Columbia, a greater understanding about health research, community and individual wellness, and relationships between art, creativity, health, and well-being. Specifically, 'HEALTHART II' will convene health researchers, health practitioners, practicing artists, Indigenous experts, and representatives from the Northern Health Authority. These people will translate, disseminate, and discuss a growing body of research about medical humanities and art and health to people and communities who might otherwise feel alienated from the arts and/or confused about 'high-level' health research.
