In a world motivated to use our innate creativity to address the harm caused by trauma, what more can we do? This event will launch a new trauma attuned arts framework co-created by a team of artists, practitioners and academics from across the UK and Ukraine.
In a world motivated to use our innate creativity to address the harm caused by trauma, what more can we do? This event will launch a new trauma attuned arts framework co-created by a team of artists, practitioners and academics from across the UK and Ukraine, including Dr Angela Kennedy, Darren Abrahams, Dr Henry Redwood, Professor Nigel Osborne, and others.
It has been developed by celebrating real world examples from across different settings and genres; and by critically analysing our own practice. It offers a structure for personal growth, developing projects, and leading for change. It helps articulate in personal ways, what trauma attuned arts projects may be hoping to achieve and how they can meet their goals for all communities and cultures. It will be a day of imagination, connection and hope. An attempt to
articulate the intangible humanity of the arts into an intellectual "Framework".
