This book shows how creative methods, drawing on innovative
arts-based and design-based approaches, can be employed in health
education contexts. It takes a very broad view of 'health
education', considering it as applying not only in school settings
but across the lifespan, and as including physical education and
sexuality education as well as public health campaigns, health
activist initiatives and programmes designed for training educators
and health professionals. The chapters outline a series of case
studies contributed by leaders in the field, describing projects
using a wide variety of creative methods conducted in a variety of
global contexts. These include a rich constellation of arts-based
and design-based methods and artefacts: sculptures, dance, walking
and other somatic movement, diaries, paintings, drawings, zines,
poems and other creative writing, body maps, collages, stories,
films, photographs, theatre performances, soundscapes, potions,
rock gardens, brainstorming, debates, secret ballots, murals and
graffiti walls. There are no rules or guidelines outlined in these
contributions about 'how to do' creative approaches to health
education. However, the methods in the case studies the authors
describe are explained in detail so that they can be adopted or
re-invented in other contexts. More importantly, these
contributions provide inspiration. They demonstrate what can be
done in the field of health education (however it is defined) to go
beyond the often stultifying and conventional boundaries it has set
for itself. Creative Approaches to Health Education demonstrates
that creative approaches can be used to inspire those working and
teaching in health education and their publics to think and do
otherwise as well as advance health education research and
pedagogies into new, exciting and provocative directions. It will
be of interest to postgraduate students and researchers in
education and health-related fields who want to explore and
experiment with creative methods and craftivism in applied inquiry.
