Education, community, health and inclusion research cluster
We lead research in education, community, health and inclusion across the School. We support existing projects, generate new ideas and bring researchers together.
The cluster also supports groups such as the Music Education Forum, York Music Psychology Group (YMPG) and the Musicians’ Health and Wellness Group and aims to widen understanding of ‘the researcher’ by extending published outputs and empowering colleagues at all levels.
