Art Therapy Conference 2023

Welcome Message

"It is my distinct honor and privilege to extend a warm welcome to each of you at the highly anticipated Art Therapy Conference, the very first of its kind in the MENA region, hosted in the vibrant and captivating city of Abu Dhabi.

The inaugural conference offers an enriching program, packed with diverse workshops, enlightening scientific sessions, compelling art showcases, and engaging networking opportunities. We have curated a lineup of renowned experts and thought leaders who will delve into the latest advancements in art therapy, exploring its impact on mental health, violence, abuse rehabilitation, emotional well-being, and personal growth. Designed with careful consideration, the conference serves as a conduit for sharing, learning, and igniting inspiration, uniting global professionals, researchers, educators, and enthusiasts in a shared pursuit.

Furthermore, as the founder and supporter of this conference, I am deeply honored to emphasize Ewaa's steadfast commitment to creating a profound impact through the therapeutic potential of art. This initiative aligns with our shared dedication to provide solace, empowerment, and assistance to survivors of trauma. Together, we forge a path where the transformative essence of art meets the compassionate mission of Ewaa, ushering in healing and hope for those in need.

As you immerse yourselves in the world of art therapy, take a moment to also immerse yourself in the remarkable surroundings of Abu Dhabi. A city that effortlessly blends tradition and modernity, where timeless desert landscapes meet futuristic skylines, and where cultural treasures await around every corner. Allow your senses to be enchanted by the rich history, warm hospitality, and diverse experiences this destination offers.

I encourage you to seize every opportunity this conference presents - to engage in thought-provoking conversations, to learn from one another, to collaborate on innovative solutions, and to leave with a renewed sense of purpose in your respective fields. Together, we can further elevate the practice of art therapy, illuminating paths to healing and well-being for individuals and communities alike.

Let us embark on this journey of discovery, connection, and empowerment together. Thank you for being a part of this transformative experience."
