Building fairer communities through arts based methods research

Surrey is using arts-based methods to foster social inclusion, enhance community engagement, and promote equity. Our impact driven arts-based initiatives, such as community workshops, performances, and public art projects, provide platforms for diverse voices and perspectives, allowing individuals from marginalized backgrounds to express themselves and share their stories. These methods encourage collaboration among community members, fostering a sense of belonging and shared identity, and can address social issues by raising awareness and sparking dialogue on topics such as inequality, discrimination, and community needs.
