Women’s and children’s health is the foundation of public health and an important indicator of a country’s overall health level. Maternal and child care has always been a priority and supported by the state in the field of public health. However, due to disparities in regional development, access to information, health awareness, and medical service levels, some rural areas in China still exhibit significant gaps in the focus on the physiological and psychological health of women and children. A lack of personal knowledge and limited local medical resources further exacerbate the socioeconomic pressures they face and increase the risk of maternal and child diseases.

Nestled against Tibetan Plateau to the west and bordered by Min River to the east, where mountains and waters embrace, a diverse and abundant array of flora and fauna thrives on this land known as Wolong. Here, ancient and vibrant folk song traditions are passed down from generation to generation. A student team from DKU’s Nature’s Echoes project ventured into Wolong Town, Wenchuan County, in Sichuan Province’s Aba Prefecture. During a two-week field study, they gathered materials and immersed themselves in the culture, and then they explored various narrative mediums to initiate the “Silent Land” art project. Ultimately, they presented Wolong’s unique folk song culture and field stories to the public through podcasts and exhibitions.
