The Creativity and Wellbeing Research Initiative (CAWRI) investigates how creativity and wellbeing intersect through a range of research projects conducted primarily through the Faculty of Fine Arts and Music, with partnerships across the university and overseas. It continues the research trajectory of a Hallmark Research Initiative that funded interdisciplinary research projects across the university between 2019 and 2023.
This website displays the breadth of our activities through blogs, podcasts and other materials.
CAWRI's aim is to develop new frameworks and methods to better understand the link between creativity and wellbeing. CAWRI has initiated and funded a range of research projects examining the link between creativity and wellbeing in a variety of contexts. Priority research areas include:
Our blog and podcast provide a platform for researchers in our network as well as others working in our theme area to connect with and communicate their research to a wider audience.
