Conference on "Art, Education and Well-being"
Description:
In a world where well-being becomes a central axis to improve the quality of life of people, the CORES in Education and Employment and Mental Health of the UAB, the Faculty of Psychology, the TECSAM Network and the FEDAC Schools, organise this conference to create the space between researchers, teachers and students to explore the interrelationship between art, education and well-being. The aim is not only to analyse the impact of art in the classroom, but also to understand how the school, as a promoter of knowledge and health, and from a social perspective, can become a key space for the well-being of people from childhood to adulthood.
The objective of the conference is threefold. For UAB students related to the subject, it will be an opportunity to become aware of how what they learn in the classroom is transferred to practice and what applications it may have in their professional future. It will also allow to deepen the role of the school and healthcare environment in the prevention of mental health problems, as seen from a prevention and health promotion perspective. For people working in the world of education, the conference aims to offer tools and perspectives on the benefits of art in education and to share initiatives that are already being carried out in this field. Finally, for all other participants, it will be a space to generate synergies and establish connections between the university, schools, and the world of research.
The day will consist of an experiences fair, a round table and micro-talks on how art can contribute to mental and emotional health, how it can favour the personal and emotional development of students, how it can promote social inclusion in the educational and community environment, and how it can question and transform power and identity dynamics from an intersectional perspective.
