• Provide a platform for collaboration in the Nordic context
• Support interaction of Arts & Health research, practice and education
• Promote the development of Arts & Health research and research methodologies
• Serve as a platform for planning new Nordic research and RDI projects

The network has been launched in 2019 in collaboration of six partners:
