H.E.A.L. Healthcare
Hearts-based Education and Anti-Colonial Learning (H.E.A.L.) Healthcare invites you to explore ways we have come to be in this world through arts-based learning tools providing an opportunity to deepen understandings about cultural humility, cultural competency, anti-racism, and anti-colonialism.
This podcast channel shares the audio inspired H.E.A.L. projects in one location. Be sure to read the podcast description for links to the project pages on the H.E.A.L. website to get all the background and learning resources.
To see all the learning tools, go to https://healhealthcare.ca/.
Health and Medical humanities are growing interdisciplinary fields bringing together health and medical sciences with arts (things like theater, creative writing, poetry, music, or painting and drawing). The podcasts created as part of the HEAL Healthcare curriculum are one part of that arts-based learning for healthcare providers, administrators, educators and learners.
