Welcome

Welcome to the Musical Investment blog!

We are interested in how we can promote investment in musical activities and how musical participation is linked to health and well-being.

This blog documents our research project.  It will include research stories, links to the project's publications and media coverage, and relevant information (such as opportunities to get involved).

This project is funded by the Australian Research Council; however, the views expressed herein are those of the authors and not necessarily those of the Australian Research Council or Universities.
