Applied theater methods and tools for a therapeutic alliance: MEET and social prescriptions

Abstract

Medicine is increasingly patient and narrative-centred for a deeper understanding of the treated, the caregiver and their contexts through empathy, care, social justice, developed through literary and artistic disciplines. This contribution illustrates Medical Education Empowered by Theatre, medical education adapted from Theatre of the Oppressed, and Social Prescriptions, a health policy tool, in a salutogenic vision involving the whole community.
