Why we need this community now

Imagine: you are no longer alone in your commitment to the intersection of health and culture! You become part of a vibrant interprofessional community where people like you implement projects, share knowledge, and create something new together – for a more humane healthcare and community.

At the intersection of culture, health, and society, many good things are happening in practice and research. What is needed is a shared, interprofessional space for resonance – one that mutually reinforces and radiates:

  • Where people from the fields of health and culture meet on equal terms
  • Where projects and insights become and remain visible across sector boundaries
  • Where experience and knowledge can continue to have an impact
  • Where support and resonance can be experienced

This is exactly what the Healing Culture Community creates: together for our vision.

Who is the community for?

Healing culture is a broad field, and that's a good thing! The community provides a common space for different perspectives, skills, and experiences.

  • Cultural workers, hospital clowns, artists, architects, and designers with social or health concerns
  • Healthcare professionals with a holistic approach
  • Social workers, educators, community actors, local initiatives
  • Researchers (e.g., neuroarts, social prescribing, cultural education, healing architecture, universal design)
  • Networks and projects that work across sectors
  • Organizations, companies, and municipalities that want to shape the future

Initiator & Host of the Healing Culture Community

"With the Healing Culture Community, I offer a curated and interprofessionally supported space for people and organizations who want to think beyond health, culture, and community and actively connect them." — Insa Schrader

Insa Schrader is a freelance journalist, networker, and pioneer of healing culture. For over 20 years, she has been bringing people, topics, and organizations together – across sector boundaries, always with a focus on participation, attitude, and genuine impact. With her background as a trained architect, journalist, and presenter, she designs interdisciplinary processes in which change can become a reality—both analog and digital.

The founder and chairwoman of Healing Culture Network e. V. is project manager for the German implementation of the EU program Culture And Health Platform (2024–2028) and combines strategic thinking, an international perspective, and broad practical experience.

What Insa Schrader stands for:

  • Healing culture as an attitude: health is more than medicine—it’s about relationships, culture, and design.
  • Connection instead of silos: health and culture belong together—where people live, learn, and work.
  • Curated togetherness: our formats create structure and resonance.
  • Impact through community: those who connect collegially can grow together and change society.

"The Healing Culture Community is more than a network— it is a space of possibility for the future we need."
