About the CSHI
The Centre for Social and Health Innovation (CSHI) is a multidisciplinary research centre established in 2018 that addresses current key challenges in the social, health and public sectors at regional, national and international level. As a research unit, the CSHI positions itself as an interface between science, practice and public governance and pursues the goal of developing and providing evidence-based decision-making foundations for politics, administration and social and health care systems. In addition to strengthening scientific discourse, the focus is particularly on transferring research outcomes into socially effective decision-making and design processes. The focus lies on interdisciplinary research in the following areas:
Health Economics & Health Policy
Digital Media, AI & Health
Social Dynamics & Social Policy
Social Work Practice, Social Change & Human Rights
This artwork was created in cooperation between the CSHI and the artist group ‘Kunst Kultur Natur’ (Art Culture Nature) of the Psychosocial Care Service Tyrol. In a participatory process, topics such as health, public health, mental health, community, research, politics and participation were creatively implemented.
