Abstract: Colour outside the lines is an opportunity for a collective unlearning of what we have come to know about compassion by providing an overview of patient informed research conducted within the Compassion Research Lab in order to determine what compassion is, what it isn’t, how it can be measured and how one of the oldest ways of caring can be revitalized into the 21st century.

Abstract: This presentation focuses on projects developed by members of the UBC-funded “Culture, Creativity, Health and Well-Being” Research Cluster. These projects honour diverse forms of knowledge and experiences; promote intergenerational and cross-cultural community connectivity; and valorize the contributions of those who have traditionally been marginalised or excluded from health-related arts-based qualitative research.
