Objectives

Narrative objectives1

This study examines the effects of group music activities on mental symptoms and behavioral issues among children residing in child welfare facilities, children requiring medical support, and children attending special needs schools. It also aims to foster peer support by having children teach each other instruments and collaboratively create music and expressive techniques.
In implementing this program, we prioritize the children's perspectives and feelings above all else. We will regularly listen to the opinions of participating children and strive to incorporate them into the expressive activities as much as possible, aiming for a collaborative creation process. We believe therapeutic interventions using music - a medium that is "familiar" and "enjoyable" - hold significant value. We seek to verify the power of music not only to "resolve emotional distress" but also to "enrich life."
