The Public Health Studio

The Public Health Studio fosters creative participation within the public health sector by working with communities at the ground level to promote health and social change. We believe that it is important to actively engage with people in ways that are accessible, relevant, and inspiring around health issues that matter to their communities. Our aim is to promote health through the process and outcomes of participation, and use creative outlets such as arts-based expression, design-driven strategies for co-creation, multimedia development and new technologies to do so. Our approach involves working with communities to understand and identify ways to improve health and wellbeing, and from there, create strategies and action projects that help realize this change. Through our learnings, reflections and research, we aim to build health capacity, reduce health inequities and inform healthy public policy. We work with companies and organizations interested in creating meaningful and innovative opportunities for community participation and health promotion.
