There is a growing call for arts-health and community arts professionals to work in ‘trauma informed ways’ to prevent re-traumatisation and promote healing. This paper reports on a scoping review of existing literature that deal with trauma aware and informed practice and its applications in arts-health and community arts. Trauma informed practice does not seek to target or treat trauma but, rather, seeks to provide a safer and more informed space for people who experience post-traumatic stress conditions and symptoms to engage in facilitated arts activities. We particularly examine the extent to which existing literature acknowledges the presence of oppression-related collective trauma – such as racial trauma – and offers appropriate creative, anti-oppressive and trauma aware practice approaches. A total of 19 articles were included following librarian input and team checking. Included articles were written in English, published in peer reviewed academic journals, included a creative arts component, and adopted an intentional trauma informed or aware approach to practice. An additional three sources were included as part of descriptive synthesis to foreground leading First Nations resources for practice. Although no specific guidelines for trauma aware practice in arts-health or community arts were found, findings are consolidated at the end of the paper to offer interim principles, values and activities for trauma aware and informed practice in arts-health and community arts. Findings can also inform general trauma related research and therapy by highlighting the growing role of arts and creativity in responding to diverse experiences of trauma and its effects.

创伤意识和反压迫艺术-健康和社区艺术实践：促进康复、健康和福祉的指导原则

人们越来越多地呼吁艺术健康和社区艺术专业人士以“创伤知情方式”开展工作，以防止再次遭受创伤并促进康复。本文报告了对现有文献的范围审查，这些文献涉及创伤意识和知情实践及其在艺术健康和社区艺术中的应用。创伤知情实践并不寻求针对或治疗创伤，而是寻求为经历创伤后应激状况和症状的人们提供一个更安全、更知情的空间来参与便利的艺术活动。我们特别研究了现有文献在多大程度上承认与压迫相关的集体创伤（例如种族创伤）的存在，并提供了适当的创造性、反压迫和创伤意识实践方法。经过图书馆员输入和团队检查后，总共收录了 19 篇文章。所包含的文章是用英语撰写的，发表在同行评审的学术期刊上，包括创意艺术部分，并采用了故意创伤知情或意识到的实践方法。作为描述性综合的一部分，还纳入了另外三个来源，以突出主要的原住民实践资源。尽管没有找到艺术健康或社区艺术中创伤意识实践的具体指南，但研究结果在论文末尾进行了整合，为艺术健康和社区艺术中的创伤意识和知情实践提供了临时原则、价值观和活动。研究结果还可以通过强调艺术和创造力在应对不同的创伤经历及其影响方面日益重要的作用，为一般创伤相关的研究和治疗提供信息。
