Mission

The International Network for the Critical Appraisal of Arts and Health Research seeks to promote excellence and critical appraisal in arts and health practice and research. It is concerned with critical appraisal and research quality and aims to develop evidence-based practice and policy – both being reliant on good quality research. The network will cultivate the development of inclusive networks for knowledge transfer of contemporary arts-for-health practices and will address the promotion of mental and physical health in all age groups, including those with acute and chronic illness and special needs. Furthermore, the network seeks international collaboration to develop clinical standards for adjuvant arts for health practices and social prescribing schemes, along with assessing their impacts. 

Aims

  • ..to promote excellence through robust and transparent appraisal of arts and health research.
  • ..to develop guidelines for conducting and reporting arts and health research and evidence reviews.
  • ..to critically assess the role of research in shaping arts and health policies and evidence-based practices.
