Creativity as Mind Care: How Cultural Education Contributes to Resilience and Psychological Wellbeing

Strukturebene: Europäische Union

Die Fachtagung ermöglicht den multinationalen Austausch über die Stärkung von Resilienz, Empowerment und Selbstwirksamkeit durch Kulturelle Bildung.

In an age marked by global crises, social fragmentation, and rising mental health concerns among young people, cultural education can play a crucial role in supporting psychological wellbeing and strengthening resilience.

The international symposium „Creativity as MindCare” brings together educators, researchers, and professionals from the fields of arts, education, health, and youth work to explore how artistic and creative processes contribute to the healthy socio-emotional development of children and young people — and how this potential can be more systematically harnessed and supported across Europe.

The symposium will showcase concrete examples and practices from various European contexts and offer opportunities for international as well as interdisciplinary exchange. In panel discussions, keynote talks, interactive sessions, and through artistic performances, participants will jointly explore the intersections of cultural education, mental health, and children‘s rights.

Invited are cultural workers, educators, youth professionals, researchers, and policymakers to help shape a more inclusive and supportive future for children and young people across Europe.
