ONLINE SYMPOSIUM

The symposium will explore how collaborative therapeutic singing can support communication, well-being, social connection, and participation for people living with aphasia and other neurological communication difficulties. Speakers will discuss the interdisciplinary partnership between Speech and Language Therapy and Neurologic Music Therapy, highlight a participant-led songwriting project, and share insights into future research, evaluation, and sustainability.
Above all, this work centres the voices and experiences of participants, celebrating community, creativity, belonging, and rehabilitation through music.

This webinar is the sixth from the Webinar-Series organized by International Network for the Critical Appraisal in Arts and Health Research (INCAAHR). The series brings together leading researchers, artists, and clinicians internationally to explore both the strengths and limitations of arts in health and of current evidence for the value of arts in health, and to assess the extent of evidence-based arts-for-health practice. The aim is to foster a transdisciplinary and rigorous discussion on what the arts can realistically contribute to wellbeing and health and how to advance future research, policy, and practice development.
