Healthy People: How the Medical Humanities and the Health Sciences Study the Complexity of Health

Aim & Description

Health is not just a biological phenomenon but also bears important social, personal, and cultural dimensions. How we understand and conceptualise such complexity is crucial to the way we study health and to interventions, whether at individual or public health level. The workshop ‘Healthy People’ brings together scholars from the medical humanities, the health sciences, and the non-academic sector to engage into an interdisciplinary and intersectoral dialogue.
