The Arts-Health theme focuses on the ways in which creative practice can contribute to enhancing wellbeing and to recovery from exposure to traumatic experience. Researchers employ a health humanities approach to engage with individuals, communities and health professionals.
Creative Sustainable Communities
The Creative Sustainable Communities theme focuses on creative responses to the diverse challenges facing individuals, communities and the environment. Researchers engage with these challenges through creative practice that generates sustainable responses. Projects focus on: play and creativity; interventions for sustainable futures and Indigenous narrative and inclusion.
First Nations Collaborative Research Web
The First Nations Collaborative Research Web provides a platform for creatives and researchers to collaborate and centre Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander perspectives in the academy.
Future Heritage
The Future Heritage theme recognises heritage as a rapidly evolving field of contemporary cultural practices. It has a focus on research that maps and describes changing forms of practice and participation, and on practical collaborations with cultural institutions and communities that conserve and enliven tangible and intangible heritage, build new forms of heritage and create new knowledge.
