CREATE

CREATE Dance for Dementia sought to Cocreate a REsearch Agenda To facilitate Equitable Dance for Dementia. Across 2022-2023, we ran a series of research workshops to bring together those living with dementia, carers, researchers and dance organisations to advance our understanding of rights-based ways of working in research on dance for dementia.

​

We are delighted that our research agenda is now available to read in Arts & Health.
