Research summary
Background:
The project was delivered in collaboration with the UoN School of Philosophy, Nottingham City-Based Place Partnership and New Vic Theatre. The overarching aim of the project was to investigate trust and distrust in seven hard to reach communities and how trust impacts on health.
The research employed Cultural Animation, an arts-based methodology of community engagement and knowledge co-production developed by Professor Mihaela Kelemen. Participants participated in creative art-based activities which facilitated storytelling. The approach aims to create an environment in which community members, health professionals and academics co-design and co-produce a more inclusive and desirable picture of community health.
Participants created a variety of outputs during the workshops, including poems, drawings and art installations.
