Population health and community health: brokering the two through art and community engagement
This open-access peer-reviewed article represents a collaborative effort between the IAM Lab and colleagues from the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine and the Johns Hopkins Health System. It analyzes how the arts and aesthetic experiences have fostered and enhanced relationships between diverse, distinct groups in an effort to build comradery, trust, and engagement. It explores the role of the arts and aesthetic experience to create homophily, foster transitivity and balance, enhance collaboration and build meaningful connections between healthcare systems and social networks to more effectively address health concerns for all involved.
