Webinar and Creative Work Launch: Imagining Better Futures of Health and Social Care with and for People with Energy Limiting Conditions (ELCs)
University of Liverpool’s Centre for Health Arts Society and Environment (CHASE) are delighted to invite you to a Zoom webinar launch for the creative work and findings from their project funded project by the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC): ‘Imagining Better Futures of Health and Social Care with and for People with Energy Limiting Conditions (ELC)’. This project is part of a series of projects on the future of health and social care, funded to coincide with the 75th anniversary of the NHS.
The project has involved a series of creative workshops for people of marginalised genders (women, trans men, non-binary, intersex and gender nonconforming people) who live with ELCs, with dedicated workshops for Muslim women and for LGBTQIA+ people. The workshops were facilitated by creative practitioners Khizra Ahmed, Khairani Barokka (Okka), Julian Gray, Mish Green and Louise Kenward. During the workshops participants were asked to imagine what better health care would be like for themselves as they age, and for people who will be diagnosed with ELC in the future. Participants and the creative practitioners have produced new work, including a podcast, comic book, zines, animation and creative writing. They also used learning from the creative workshops in discussions with healthcare practitioners and allied professionals.
The webinar will launch these creative outputs and the policy recommendations from the work with healthcare practitioners.
The launch takes place on Wednesday July 17th 2-4pm via Zoom. Further information is available here.
CHASE has a series of regular events called The Interdisciplinary Lab events. More information about these can be found on the CHASE Events site.
