Abstract: Since the World Health Organization Regional Office for Europe landmark report – «What is the evidence on the role of the arts in improving health and well-being? A scoping review» (2019), written by Fancourt and Finn – attention on and capacity within the arts and health has only grown. To highlight some of this growth, this paper identifies some of the key areas of research that have strengthened the evidence base of the field of the arts and health since then. This paper uses a scoping review approach, using keyword searches of the following databases: Pub- Med, Google Scholar, ScienceDirect, Search Oxford Libraries Online, and Scopus. This paper focuses mainly on results from the WHO European Region, but includes findings from other countries where results were particularly salient. Both peer-reviewed publications and grey literature were included within the search.
