The "Health on Stage Evaluation Report" reviews the outcomes of a public health dialogue project using forum theatre, organized by the Asia-Europe Foundation (ASEF) and the Coordinating Committee for International Voluntary Service (CCIVS) across Bangalore, Chennai, and Mysore. The project involved 27 participants from ASEM countries who engaged local communities through performances to raise awareness on water-related public health issues. The report details the project's phases, from training in forum theatre and intercultural learning to the performances and their evaluation. It highlights the project's immediate impact on participants and communities, discusses the long-term effects, and offers insights and recommendations for adapting the forum theatre method to different cultural contexts.
