Infos

Forced displacement has become a global crisis, directly affecting 100 million people across the world. Amid the complex and overwhelming experience of displacement, music provides a medium to hold space for whatever emotions and experiences need to be expressed. Music therapy offers a pathway to communicate these emotions and provide support, connection, and comfort. This book offers a perspective on how music therapy can address the psychosocial needs of people displaced across and within borders. It covers a wide spectrum of music engagement, from clinical therapy sessions to community-based programs that include elements of training, co-production, and sustainability. Each section and chapter discusses music therapy models and methods that are being used and evaluated by practitioners. It includes the voices of persons with lived experience speaking about the utility of music therapy for themselves and their families as well as constructive advice on how to devise and develop this work.
