Do No Harm: Reflections on Healthcare

Do No Harm (DNH) is a week-long public-facing art exhibition advocating for sustainable healthcare, creatively directed by Dr Tanishka Brahmanand and supported by Australian charities CLIMARTE and Medical Pantry.

This project aims to raise awareness of the harm caused by current Australian healthcare practices and propagate known solutions crucial to transitioning towards a socially and ecologically sustainable system. DNH will showcase the work of Australian and international artists inviting viewers to consider their stake in advocating for planetary health. It will also prioritise the Indigenous knowledge systems crucial to sustainable reform. Further, DNH will include a series of academic events and workshops for deeper engagement of health providers and consumers alike.

This exhibition is the culmination of Dr Tanishka Brahmanand’s Wattle Fellowship project, a University of Melbourne programme which fosters leadership in global sustainability.
