Healthcare often struggles to measure what matters most: joy, identity, and expression.
Through social prescribing, the Global Social Prescribing Alliance is helping redefine these as core health outcomes.
Arts and culture interventions from music therapy and theatre to museum engagement—are proving transformative:
-
Reducing anxiety and depression
-
Enhancing cognitive function
-
Building community identity GSPA is working to:
-
Integrate arts into healthcare pathways
-
Position cultural institutions as health partners
-
Build global evidence for creative health interventions This is not about replacing medicine.
It’s about recognising that healing happens in many forms.
At the July 2026 Summit, global leaders in creative health will come together to scale this movement bringing arts and culture firmly into the future of healthcare.
