Music workshops for wellbeing: Using video for evaluation

After almost a year of collaboration, the knowledge exchange initiative on ‘evidencing outcomes of participatory arts workshops using video analysis’ shares the main insights developed within the project. The project is a collaboration between researchers of the University of Sheffield and collaborators from external partner organisations including Helen Lyle and Mir Jansen, from Arts in Health, Sheffield Teaching Hospitals, Cara McAleese and Lucy Robertshar from darts (Doncaster Arts), and Pavithra Gangadharan from Kshetra, Heritage Care Homes, India working with Vinoo Alluri of the International Institute for Information Technology, Hyderabad. The findings relate to partners’ uses of video analysis to document, learn from and evidence externally outcomes of the participatory music workshops they deliver.
