Developing heritage focused wellbeing measure

项目摘要

Health, quality of life and wellbeing have become the number one priority areas for individuals, communities and governments worldwide and directly impact policy making across much of the developed world. A significant body of evidence and numerous policy directives acknowledge the important role culture and access to heritage plays in active citizenship, community engagement, improving wellbeing and life satisfaction. The heritage sector has the opportunity to more closely engage with this broad agenda and in return benefit from its strength as a priority with funders and partners. Museums and galleries already have an effect on wellbeing through their learning, access and outreach programmes and have done throughout much of their history. The challenge, as with learning, is measuring the distinctive but potentially significant contribution museums and galleries make to individual and community wellbeing, and articulately advocating for further work to potential partners and funders. It is therefore vital we establish a robust, repeatable, measure for assessing the value to health and wellbeing that this interaction affords. Furthermore, such engagement requires strong theoretical and empirical evidence, and a conceptual language, in order to clearly articulate the value of the heritage sector's contribution to health and wellbeing. Previous AHRC-funded research has demonstrated that heritage-focused activities in hospitals and other healthcare settings have shown significant improvements in wellbeing as measured by scales commonly used in clinical practice. Analysis of interviews showed that patients are distracted from their clinical surroundings and feel happier and healthier as a result of heritage-focused activities such as handling and discussing museum objects. The effects of arts-focused interventions in healthcare contexts are also well-documented and reviewed. Studies have found that arts-focused activities can lead to reduced drug consumption, decreased hospital stay, improvements in mental wellbeing and social inclusion, and increased empathy in healthcare professionals with mental health patients. There are many other examples of good practice from UK museums and galleries whose community access programmes have revealed a significant impact on enhancing social wellbeing; a few highlights include the Dulwich Picture Gallery's 'Good Times - Prescription for Art' programme, the Museum of East Anglian Life's social inclusion programme, Colchester and Ipswich Museum's work with mental health service users and the arts-for-health programme run across Manchester Museums.To date the above 'wellbeing' programmes and others like them have used a range of techniques to assess the value and impact of their work, including 'social return on investment' models, mental health wellbeing scales and quality of life measures. The sector however, lacks a defined approach for assessing the impact of its work on health and wellbeing. In the last ten years, many museums and galleries have used a set of measures called the Generic Learning Outcomes (GLOs) to assess the impact of their work on learning. Subsequently, the Generic Social Outcomes (GSOs) were devised to measure the social benefits resulting from a museum or heritage visit such as the level of interaction between visitors as a result of engagement with an object or historic site. The goal of this project is to move beyond the GLOs and GSOs to develop a heritage focused wellbeing measure and create a new conceptual and methodological framework (or Generic Wellbeing Outcome, GWO), for evaluating the heritage sectors contribution to health and wellbeing. Through testing and validating the GWO across a variety of museums and galleries, the project will assess and promote the benefits to health, wellbeing and quality of life of heritage-focused activities.

健康、生活质量和福祉已成为世界各地个人、社区和政府的首要优先领域，并直接影响到许多发达国家的政策制定。大量证据和众多政策指令承认文化和遗产获取在积极公民身份、社区参与、改善福祉和生活满意度方面发挥着重要作用。遗产部门有机会更密切地参与这一广泛的议程，作为回报，它作为资助者和合作伙伴的优先事项而受益。博物馆和画廊已经通过其学习、获取和推广项目对福祉产生了影响，并且在其历史的大部分时间里都在发挥作用。与学习一样，挑战在于衡量博物馆和画廊对个人和社区福祉的独特但潜在的重大贡献，并明确地向潜在的合作伙伴和资助者倡导进一步的工作。因此，至关重要的是，我们要建立一个强大的、可重复的衡量标准，以评估这种互动对健康和福祉的价值。此外，这种参与需要强有力的理论和经验证据，以及一种概念性的语言，以便清楚地阐明遗产部门对健康和福祉贡献的价值。以前ahrc资助的研究表明，在医院和其他医疗机构中，以遗产为重点的活动已经显示出临床实践中常用的量表对幸福感的显着改善。对访谈的分析显示，患者从临床环境中分散了注意力，并且由于处理和讨论博物馆文物等以遗产为中心的活动而感到更快乐、更健康。以艺术为重点的干预措施在卫生保健方面的影响也得到了充分的记录和审查。研究发现，以艺术为重点的活动可以减少药物消耗，缩短住院时间，改善心理健康和社会包容，并增加医疗保健专业人员对精神疾病患者的同情。英国博物馆和画廊还有许多其他良好实践的例子，它们的社区访问计划显示了对增强社会福祉的重大影响；一些亮点包括德威画廊的“美好时光-艺术处方”项目，东安格利亚生活博物馆的社会包容项目，科尔切斯特和伊普斯维奇博物馆与心理健康服务用户的合作，以及贯穿曼彻斯特博物馆的艺术健康项目。迄今为止，上述“福利”项目和其他类似项目已经使用了一系列技术来评估其工作的价值和影响，包括“社会投资回报”模型、心理健康福利量表和生活质量指标。然而，该部门缺乏一种明确的方法来评估其工作对健康和福祉的影响。在过去十年中，许多博物馆和画廊使用了一套称为通用学习成果（GLOs）的措施来评估其工作对学习的影响。随后，设计了通用社会结果（gso）来衡量参观博物馆或遗产所带来的社会效益，例如游客与文物或历史遗址互动的程度。该项目的目标是超越glo和gso，开发以遗产为重点的福祉衡量标准，并创建一个新的概念和方法框架（或通用福祉结果，GWO），用于评估遗产部门对健康和福祉的贡献。通过在各种博物馆和画廊中测试和验证GWO，该项目将评估和促进以遗产为重点的活动对健康、福祉和生活质量的好处。
