Geopolitical permacrises and systemic delays in welfare access exacerbate educational poverty, with adverse consequences for individuals’ physical and mental well-being.

Abstract

Geopolitical permacrises and systemic delays in welfare access exacerbate educational poverty, with adverse consequences for individuals’ physical and mental well-being. This paper argues that when fostered by community-based Participatory Co-Design, research interventions like equine-assisted learning, augmented with narrative medicine and high-fidelity simulation practices, can operationalize a person-centred pedagogy of care, capable of decelerating such self-reinforcing vicious cycles and attenuate health and social inequalities.
