About H.E.A.L. Healthcare: The Hearts-based Education and Anti-colonial Learning (H.E.A.L.) Healthcare Project brings together artists, writers, activists, and people with lived experience to create arts-based anti-oppression learning materials for healthcare educators, professionals, and practitioners. Our goal is to use the arts to address oppressive behaviours and attitudes that we all hold and that permeate healthcare systems and culture. The learning modules provided on the H.E.A.L. Healthcare website address longstanding and well-established evidence that health disparities exist because of racist, colonial, able-body/minded, geographic, economic, and gendered inequities.
