背景我们认为基于艺术的方法对于支持公共卫生相关政策的证据的产生和交换具有价值。本文报道了南威尔士一个前煤矿小镇两个项目的合作成果。方法我们使用了一个参与性框架,研究人员、社区成员和艺术家通过创意艺术共同制作“证据”,为公共政策提供信息。我们使用多种不同的技术收集了一系列数据,包括访谈、焦点小组和观察,但也包括广泛的创造性活动。结果这些数据提供了关于不同年龄段的人们如何生活的多种视角。人民平台是一场基于绩效的辩论,这是合作的高潮。该节目包括一系列简短的表演,中间有时间进行讨论。人们认为,该展览促进了健康和福祉问题上的知识交流,而这些问题通常很难通过传统形式的证据来表达和理解。 结论 虽然基于艺术的方法并非没有风险,但它们提供了另一种形式的知识,作为政策制定者可用数据范围的必要补充。
Background We propose that arts based methodologies can be of value in the production and exchange of evidence in supporting public health related policy. This article reports on a collaborative piece of work resulting from two projects which took place in a former coal mining town in South Wales.Methods We used a participatory framework whereby researchers, community members and artists co-produced 'evidence' through the creative arts to inform public policy. We collected a range of data using a number of different techniques, including interviews, focus groups and observation, but also included an extensive range of creative activities.Results The data provided a diverse range of perspectives on how people of different ages live their lives. The People's Platform was a performance-based debate which was the culmination of the collaboration. The show involved a series of short performances with time for facilitated discussion in-between. It was felt that the show facilitated knowledge exchange on health and wellbeing issues that are usually difficult to express and understand through traditional forms of evidence.Conclusion Whilst arts-based approaches are not free from risk, they offer an alternative form of knowledge as a necessary complement to the range of data available to policy makers.
