Creative Ways to Youth Wellbeing in Aotearoa

Ambers PhD at the University of Auckland, Faculty of Education and Social Work.

My PhD is researching the potential of creative participation to contribute to better youth mental health and wellbeing in Aotearoa. I’m looking at the local and international context for this kind of work, the evidence base, and co-designing (with young people and arts, health, education, youth professionals) a principle-based model of practice and evaluation framework.
