Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], June 16: The HeArt of Care, an international alliance of organizations dedicated to recognizing and valuing the crucial role of carers in the society, is delighted to announce its initiative to honour and celebrate caregivers around the world. With a mission to forge new perceptions of dignity, compassion, and joy of caregiving, the HeArt of Care invites carers to work with artists to cocreate films and poems that capture the grace of care and contribute to raising awareness about the invaluable contributions carers make to the communities.
Caring for others is often an invisible act, performed by countless individuals within families and communities. The HeArt of Care aims to shed light on the profound impact of caregiving and acknowledge the dedication and selflessness of carers worldwide. Funded by Arts Council of England, this new project will culminate in a series of public projections in civic spaces that will help carers shape a new narrative that celebrates care.
Founders of Caregiver Saathi and Rosetta Life, two organizations at the forefront of supporting caregivers, express their enthusiasm for the HeArt of Care Alliance and its transformative vision:
Bhavana Issar, CEO and founder of Caregiver Saathi, said, "We are proud to be part of the HeArt of Care Alliance, an initiative that recognizes and appreciates the tireless efforts of carers or caregivers. Caregiver Saathi is committed to enhancing the well-being of caregivers, and this alliance aligns with our mission. By encouraging carers to participate in various art forms, we empower them to share their perspective, life experience and stories that can shift social narratives around Caregivers and Caregiving. In a culture where there is no equivalent term for a carer or family caregiver, We invite all carers to participate actively and showcase the beauty and strength of caregiving."
Lucinda Jarrett, Artistic Director, Rosetta Life, said, "At Rosetta Life, we firmly believe in the power of art to inspire and transform lives. The HeArt of Care Alliance offers a unique platform for carers to express their experiences creatively and challenge existing stereotypes. Through this initiative, we can reimagine caregiving as a source of compassion, joy, and dignity without undervaluing the challenges we face as carers."
The HeArt of Care Alliance launches the project with a series of master classes focused on poetry, dance, and visual art. These classes aim to challenge existing stereotypes surrounding caregiving and provide carers with an expressive creative outlet and an opportunity to share their perspectives with others.
The project is being launched in India through Caregiver Saathi's website,
and in the UK via the website,
