Jameel Arts & Health Lab launched to measure the impact of the arts on health
The Jameel Arts & Health Lab was launched at The National Arts Club in New York on Tuesday following the signing of agreements between the World Health Organization (WHO) Regional Office for Europe, the Steinhardt School at New York University (NYU), Community Jameel, and CULTURUNNERS. Focused on overlooked and underserved communities, the lab will coordinate and amplify scientific research into the effectiveness of the arts in improving health and well-being to drive policy implementation across 193 UN member states.
The lab represents the first major arts and health initiative in the history of the WHO and follows its 2019 report on the role of the arts in preventing illness and promoting health.
