Imagining Wellbeing?
Our project draws on creative practice and research to ask how we can envision the experience of wellbeing and factors that influence it.
The Imagining Wellbeing theme brings together researchers from across the Humanities and Social Sciences to tackle these questions in collaborative and interdisciplinary ways.
Creative approaches
How has wellbeing been conceptualised and reimagined over time, or shaped by personal, political and economic inequalities in urban environments?
Narratives of wellbeing
What can historical, political, legal and creative narratives tell us about the vulnerability and communal sustainability of wellbeing?
The Centre for Urban Wellbeing brings together academics from across the University of Birmingham to tackle global challenges to community health and wellbeing.
Events & Activities
Over the past two years we have run creative workshops for community projects and held research events on the built environment, digital wellbeing, and approaches to wellbeing across the arts and humanities.
