Critical Medical Humanities
During the past two decades, we witnessed the inconvenience of interconnecting medical education and humanities. The gap between how different faculties interpret humanities and the ways in which they imagine how humanities should be taught remains wide. I provide these six keywords for the consideration of educators and curriculum development: identity, gaze, narratives, cultural/structural competency, citizenship, uncertainty. I convene the following workshops that are informed by theories and practices of medical history, sociology and anthropology.
Most recently, I am developing a cross-disciplinary workshop that combines narrative medicine and verbatim (documentary) theatre. If you are interested in a taster workshop, please contact me: hyjw@gs.ncku.edu.tw
