Culture - Health - Disability in Hauts-de-France
Culture - Health - Disability: an interdepartmental will that seeks the best possible consideration of the artistic and cultural fact in health and medico-social institutions.
More than twenty years of joint action by the Ministry of Culture and the Ministry of Health within the framework of inter-ministerial and regional conventions have made it possible to include in many institutions a cultural policy of excellence for of the public in the field of health and disability. Hundreds of projects have emerged over the years in health and medico-social institutions in our territories.
The modalities are always original, but always based on the intervention of professional artists and the mobilization of cultural structures. All sectors are intended to be represented: performing arts in all its components (theatre, music, dance, circus, street arts, etc.), cinema and audiovisual, digital practices, visual and graphic arts, books, reading and writing, heritage and museums, architecture but also multidisciplinary intersections.
The forms may vary: from the workshop to the time of diffusion, from the setting up of artistic and cultural routes or meetings to the residency project, each project is unique. The principle of co-construction based on a proven partnership between the institution and the artist or the cultural structure and involving as early as possible patients and users as well as families, ensures the coherence of the project with regard to the issues and the public concerned.
The effects are clearly identified and the benefits shared by users, professionals, artists and cultural structures. Thus, having the opportunity to start or continue your cultural life during your stay in a health or medico-social institution is:
- For users, to be restored to their status as citizens, as persons fully exercising their right to culture, at the same time as experiencing their creative potential;
- For professionals, it means being able to create new spaces for cooperation, and for institutions to create living spaces, third-party spaces permeable to the life of the city, participating in the registration of institutions in their territory;
- For cultural structures, it is to respond fully to their mission of public service of culture, and for artists, it is to enrich a creative approach, and renew the forms of intervention through the meeting of new audiences.
Under these conditions, the DRAC intends to maintain its support in 2024-2025 for a proactive and ambitious policy of access to art and culture for the public in the field of health and disability (patients, residents and users, professionals, visitors and families).
Aware of the multiple initiatives already existing and implemented directly by professionals, cultural partners and institutional partners (Departments in particular), the DRAC specifies its support by favouring support:
- actions contributing to the animation of the Culture-Health-Disability network (exchanges, training and sensitization, valorisation and tools) - pulse program
- actions contributing to the strengthening of the accessibility of cultural structures - Enabling Accessibility Fund Program
- to artist residencies - Circulations program
- the dissemination of brief «impromptu» forms - Health Plains Program
Until 2020, the DRAC and the ARS were signatories of a triennial agreement that aimed to develop a cultural and artistic dynamic within health institutions and institutions falling within the field of disability and the exclusive jurisdiction of the ARS, to include it in their management and to anchor it in their general policy.
