Issue 5 (October) 2009


ONLINE NOW!

http://www.cbonline.org.au/3cmedia/



This issue of the Journal of Community, Citizen's and Third Sector Media and Communication (3CMedia) provides important insights into how a particular form of community-based digital media practice is being used in a variety of contexts to facilitate social participation through storytelling and creative expression. Papers are based on selected presentations given at the 5th annual Making Links conference, held at The University of Melbourne from 11th to 13th November, 2008.

Aneta Podkalicka and Jonathan Staley report on the development, operation and management of a youth media program, YouthWorx Media and how digital storytelling is being used in conjunction with community radio to engage disadvantaged young people.

Peta-Marie Standley and her colleagues introduce The Traditional Knowledge Revival Pathways (TKRP), an Indigenous-owned community, training and environmental consultancy, that uses new media tools including digital storytelling techniques to reconnect people to place and to demonstrate the value of the ancient Indigenous knowledge system in providing solutions to issues of contemporary concern.
Natalie Davey and Samia Goudie report on the Hope Vale - Pelican project. This partnership between the Elders of Hope Vale, and Pelican Expeditions, a marine research and education service provider aims to promote social and emotional wellbeing and caring for country. In 2007 and 2008 a digital storytelling media camp was embedded into the project and extraordinary stories were produced.

Throughout 2009 the State Library of Queensland (SLQ) collaborated with individuals and Indigenous communities across Queensland in an initiative that used digital storytelling to capture responses to the Apology made by Prime Minister Kevin Rudd. Jean Burgess and Helen Klaebe report on the collaborative process used to capture responses from Brisbane-based individuals.



The Australian Centre for the Moving Image is one of the few cultural institutions of its kind worldwide. Helen Simondson charts the development of the Digital Storytelling program at ACMI.
