Community Engagement
Our community engagement initiatives form part of the Education and Training philosophy at IQ Institute of Neuropsychiatry and Dr. Aisha’s Health Vision Hospital. These projects are designed to provide supervised, field-based learning opportunities while maintaining clear ethical standards, professional oversight, and respect for the communities involved.
Community initiatives are undertaken selectively and are aligned with defined learning objectives, consent considerations, and reflective practice.
Creative, Sensory, and Movement-Based Group Activities
On 3 January 2026, this supervised community engagement initiative was conducted with inpatients, alongside student volunteers from DHA Suffa University. The project involved structured group activities focused on creative, sensory, and movement-based engagement, including guided movement, plant-based tasks, and creative expression. The initiative supported emotional regulation, sensory participation, and social interaction, with participants demonstrating increased engagement and a sense of inclusion within a structured community setting.
