Abstract: There is increasing international interest in the idea that well-being and health are related to resilience. Participative community singing is beneficial for well-being not only in people who are free from health problems, but especially for those whose physical and mental health is compromised. This study examined the development of five Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander singing groups and the benefits relating to promoting resilience and ultimately preventing chronic disease in this population. Mixed methods, including both quantitative and qualitative approaches, were used. Questionnaires were administered to collect data on chronic life stresses, resilience, social support and social connectedness. Focus group interviews were conducted to obtain data on the participants’ and stakeholders’ perceptions of the impact of the singing groups. Multivariate analysis of variance was used to test the effectiveness of the intervention program on improving resilience at both the in idual and the community levels. Structural equation modelling was used to analyse the pathways from the benefits gained from the singing program to the prevention of chronic disease. The results suggested that the singing groups served multiple functions, which are underpinned by social ecological resilience mechanisms to promote self-esteem, learning and education and confidence at the in idual level, as well as community connectedness, reduction of loneliness and promoting social support from family, community and the social context such as support from community-controlled health services, and ultimately preventing chronic disease.

Abstract: La lectura y escritura académicas son un requerimiento hoy en la consecución de los fines misionales de las universidades, no solo porque aportan a los procesos de aprendizaje a su cargo, sino también porque juegan un papel fundamental en la consolidación de las prácticas sociales y culturales propias de las disciplinas y profesiones. Además de estas dimensiones epistémicas, sociales y culturales, es importante reflexionar sobre lo que la lectura y escritura académicas son en su dimensión ético–política. Con base en algunos recursos conceptuales de la teoría política de la intelectual alemana Hannah Arendt, se analiza en este artículo la manera como se construye la vida política en un tipo de curso de lectura y escritura académicas dirigido a estudiantes de primer semestre de una universidad colombiana. Los hallazgos que se presentan son la base experiencial para sugerir la necesidad de promover una «literacidad ética» en nuestras universidades, la cual reconozca, exalte, cree y fortalezca la red de relaciones entre la pluralidad de personas involucradas en los procesos de lectura y escritura académicas, al tiempo que promueva una reflexión sobre las relaciones y redes de relaciones que construimos a través de nuestras acciones y palabras cuando leemos y escribimos en la educación superior.
