Abstract

Carnegie Hall’s Lullaby Project seeks to harness the power of music and lullabies to enhance perinatal care, strengthen family bonds, and foster individual and community well-being. In 2024, its annual Lullaby Convening brought together an international community of musicians, healthcare professionals, researchers, and community partners to explore how the Lullaby Project supports health, social equity, and vulnerable populations through the universality of lullabies. This practice-based report provides a synthesis of personal testimonies, interdisciplinary research findings, and community-driven insights. Findings emphasized the need for more impact-based research, using a range of approaches, along with innovative pathways for the project’s expansion to ensure sustained relevance across diverse cultural contexts worldwide.
