British research during the Covid-19 period showed that consuming art reduces psychological stress and increases resilience (Gallo et al., 2021). With this summer school we'll take it one step further and apply art-based learning.

• The young professional is better developed in his artistic being and will therefore be more sensory, more alert, different and broader in his role.
• Using authentic case studies discussed in an international and interdisciplinary context, we investigate how this method influences the positive health and resilience of their audience (patient, client,...).

Week 1: Focus on me as a professional

• You will be able to map your own positive health using the spider web and identify the limiting and supporting factors per dimension.  For this you will use reflection and imagination.
• You can express what change you want to realize within your own positive health/resilience as a professional. And which concrete actions you will take to achieve this in the coming months.
• You will collaborate in patient/client centered care with other and different professions.
• You can explore and name the ways and forms of art that support you in developing your own resilience and expressing their own experiences.

Week 2:  Focus on the other (client, carer, public)

• You can use the spider web as a conversation tool to map out the other person's positive health.
• You can explore the art forms through which you can express yourselves and connect with others.
• You will have developed an increased alertness to notice the unspoken needs of the other, to recognize them, to feel whether something artistic/creative can support them and to act accordingly.
