In 2025, TOON will team up with Dr. Guislain Museum (Ghent), University College London Arts & Sciences, and Amsab-Institute for Social History (Ghent). Together, they will deliver the International Winter School ‘Cultural Heritage & Wellbeing: Refugees’, from Monday February 3 to Friday February 7 2025 in Ghent (Belgium).
The focus of this winter school is on cultural heritage-based programs that support the mental wellbeing of forcibly displaced people. During the five-day program, participants will receive theoretical insights, discuss and reflect on the professional development needed to engage refugees using creative methods, and develop wellbeing programs for refugees. Participants will explore a wide range of inspiring case studies where cultural heritage has been successfully used to improve the wellbeing of refugees.
