DESCRIPTION
The course aims to harness the transformative power of the arts for personal and societal development. The primary objective is to introduce students to diverse art forms such as theatre, dance, music, visual arts and creative writing and their application in several contexts of practice. The intention is to enhance their understanding of art as embodied knowledge and experience, and apply reflective and art-based practices to improve soft skills such as self-awareness, interpersonal communication, confidence, trust, team work and leadership. By fostering creativity, innovative and critical thinking, the course encourages students to view the arts as a method for expressing complex emotions and diversity of social narratives.
