POLICY
We work with world-leading researchers in the UK and internationally to develop and improve arts and health policy globally.
With the WHO we have published several major international reports and briefings on arts and health. We work closely with the UK government and Arts Councils, US Arts & Public Health policy network, and support policy work across Europe. We are also working with the United Nations, United Cities and Local Governments and UNESCO. We established and continue to support the MARCH Mental Health Research network, which links arts with other social and community engagement, funding research, delivering policy activity and supporting collaborations.
