As the world around us experiences turbulent changes—digital, political, social, and cultural—the role of the doctor and of health care is shifting too.
Through the methodology of play we bring together diverse views and experiences, giving a platform and voice to marginalised communities.
Our research asks how the role of the doctors is changing, how our understanding of care is evolving and whose voices are heard. We study the ongoing disruption and transformation of medicine across four case studies: Abortion care, LGBTQ+ health activism, Artificial Intelligence and Physician Associate.
Throughout the research project we will ask questions about the sociology of care (how care is organised, valued, and experienced in everyday life) and the philosophy of voice (which asks whose perspectives are heard in healthcare, and whose are left out.)
Playful workshops and interactions will allow us to engage across a spectrum of different communities and professions. Through sharing different perspectives and working together we aim to develop recommendations for how we can make healthcare inclusive for everyone.
