UNGA Healing Arts Week 2025
UNGA Healing Arts Week 2025 returned with a bold, expanded program of events that brought together artists, healthcare leaders, policymakers, and communities from around the world. Through performances, panels, research presentations, and community activations, the week explored how the arts are driving innovation in health and well-being.
The week, which took place alongside the 80th Session of the United Nations General Assembly, spotlighted the role of culture and creativity in advancing global health priorities—particularly in the context of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) and mental health.
This year, for the first time, events will take place across all five boroughs of New York City, reflecting the growing momentum of the Arts in Health movement and its relevance to diverse communities and care settings.
