Abstract: This presentation focuses on projects developed by members of the UBC-funded “Culture, Creativity, Health and Well-Being” Research Cluster. These projects honour diverse forms of knowledge and experiences; promote intergenerational and cross-cultural community connectivity; and valorize the contributions of those who have traditionally been marginalised or excluded from health-related arts-based qualitative research.
