ABSTRACT

This paper investigates the intersection of artistic activism and health policy, focusing on how artistic interventions influence policy debates, address health disparities, and foster societal change. By examining historical and contemporary case studies, the paper demonstrates the capacity of artistic activism to challenge social norms, mobilize communities, and inform policy decisions. It emphasizes the unique ability of art to humanize complex issues, engage diverse audiences, and serve as a catalyst for inclusive policymaking. Through methodological assessments, the paper highlights key success factors, potential pitfalls, and the evolving role of interdisciplinary collaborations in advancing health equity. The findings underscore the need for robust frameworks to evaluate the impact of art-driven initiatives on health policy and advocate for expanded research and practice in this domain.

Keywords: Artistic Activism, Health Policy, Social Change, Public Health Advocacy, Interdisciplinary Collaboration.
