Socially engaged arts has increasingly become the umbrella term used to describe a wide constellation of community-based artistic approaches. These include community arts, participatory arts, collaborative and co-created practices, social practice, public art, and artivism to name a few. Together, these approaches share a commitment to working with communities, shaping cultural processes collectively, and responding to the social, political, and environmental conditions in which they are embedded.
