“…These processes participate in reshaping existing ones in order to continue a new narrative. This reshaping strongly echoes those of resilience: "reshaping in response to a given condition such as adversity or risk" (COHOLIC et al, 2012). Problem solving is a dynamic process necessary for the development of resilience.…”

“…Young people considered resilient are better able to cope with fears, adapt in order to try to solve problems, show optimism, become positive role models and demonstrate flexibility (HEISE, 2014;KIM, 2015). This conceptualization of resilience underscores the importance of recognizing a dynamic relationship between young people, the resources they may have access to and their culture and/or context (COHOLIC et al, 2012).…”

The current armed conflicts in the world, and in particular those linked to the Islamic State System (ISIS) in Iraq, constitute a major obstacle to stable benchmarks, to a collective reading of a common culture, and to a society free from the symptoms of war. Inclusive artistic interventions are often deployed with children affected by conflict as a source of resilience and empowerment. The objective of this article is to propose entry into resilience identified during the implementation of a device of an "artistic biography" activities with coaches of an NGO and young people in a camp in Iraq. The device built was a project to "paint our caravans" as a first project with the young people in a camp. Through our experience as an artist, trainer and researcher, we observe the indicators of entry into "presence" during the artistic activities. Involvement in a collective work, self-recognition by the coaches and self-recognition in the final artistic work are the three indicators of presence that we note. Individual and collective resilience processes are complex and long and subject to many obstacles. Our article invites further investigation to build evidence to develop artistic response in humanitarian emergencies.

“…We also suggest implementing the ABC model, the CBT model, and Outward Bounding training, which can enhance the resilience of these children. Group-based programs have been found effective to foster children’s resilience in other countries (e.g., Alvord & Grados, 2005; Coholic et al, 2012; Watson et al, 2014).…”

Purpose: Kunjing children refer to those who endure harsh living conditions due to family poverty, health problems, and lack of parental care in Mainland China. This scoping review aims to explore interventions promoting the resilience of kunjing children in China. Method: Both Chinese and English studies published by January 2020 were reviewed through a comprehensive search of articles in Web of Science and Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure. Empirical studies targeting resilience-focused interventions for kunjing children in China were selected. Results: A total of 12 studies were reviewed. Seven studies tested interventions involving only kunjing children, and the other five involved both children and parents/caregivers. Children with health problems and those who lack parental care participated in the programs, but children in poverty were absent. Group-based interventions were the most commonly used programs, which were effective. Conclusion: The current state of intervention studies calls for programs that promote resilience of kunjing children and their parents/caregivers.

“…This may be particularly relevant for marginalised or oppressed peoples who often have problem-saturated narratives about their lives (Coholic 2011, Coholic et al 2012. For example, it is well documented how research has traditionally been conducted on Aboriginal peoples in ways that emphasise their problems and deficiencies rather than their strengths and capacities (Smith 1999).…”

In recognising the limitations of verbally based research methods for understanding and capturing the multidimensionality of lived experience, arts-based methods have been gaining ground within the social sciences. These methods embrace emotional, sensory, embodied and imaginative ways of knowing that lend to richer knowledge production and communication processes. Yet, these methods are rarely used in sport research. The purpose of the current project was to explore an arts-based method as a tool to facilitate participatory action research (PAR) and generate locally resonant knowledge about the sport experiences of Aboriginal community members in north-eastern Ontario, Canada. Mandala drawings were used to embrace an Indigenous epistemology and open up a culturally affirming space for Aboriginal athletes to share their experiences of sport relocation. Conversational interviews were then used to facilitate deeper understandings of the athletes' mandalas. The images contributed towards community action on two levels: (1) they affirmed a need for athletes to feel connected to their cultural community during relocation, therein reinforcing local efforts to support relocated athletes; and (2) they served as a resource for educating and inspiring other aspiring young athletes. The strengths and challenges of arts-based methods are discussed in relation to PAR. It is concluded that artsbased methods offer potential for community-based sport research, as these methods open up a diversity of art forms which can be adopted to reflect localised PAR processes and ways of knowing.
