Learn about the role of digital storytelling and theatre in health research and knowledge translation

About this event

This webinar explores the arts in health-based research and knowledge translation. As part of a two-year funded study about breast cancer care, breast-cancer patients were recruited to create digital stories about their treatment experiences. Digital stories were used as a pedagogical tool with health care providers, and subsequently became the foundation for a theatre production informed by the patient’s experiences. The webinar will include an overview of the research design, the outcomes of the study, and core processes involved in the knowledge translation process associate with digital storytelling and theatre production.

Speakers:

She is a visual methodologist where her research focuses on developing accessible processes incorporating multi-sensory and arts-based methods in research design, knowledge translation and community engagement. She has published in national and international journals and her knowledge translation efforts include over 200 arts-based works including short documentary films, photography, and cartoons with over 100 invited and juried screenings/referred exhibitions.
