this scribble in the sand was the very first time we etched the sumunum logo in public! the rawness and wabi sabi of the beach sand embodied sumunum's vision & ethos more beautifully than we could have imagined..
sumunum is a social enterprise aimed at improving health & wellbeing
through arts-based practices.
we develop and harness arts based approaches and processes to support health and development programmes across community, civil society, and organisational levels.
​
our work includes:
​
the design and delivery of preventive and promotive mental health and social care services
​
the creation of bespoke arts and creative interventions for mental health and public health practice
​
capacity building across cadres for delivery of mental health and arts based interventions
​
the use of arts-based methods for monitoring and evaluation, documentation, research & dissemination
we aspire to:
​
-
establish the relevance & significance of arts interventions in health, education, development & wellbeing
-
collaborate with individuals, communities and organisations to enable non-health pathways into care and reduce barriers to wellbeing.
​​ -
engage arts based practices to catalyse social transformation
-
use arts based methods in health research and enable greater participation of lived experience experts, and non-scientific communities in the research process
