Boorloo/Perth Story Caretaker Workshop: Respecting Story Holders and their Stories

  • Mount Flora Regional Museum 30 Elvire Street Watermans Bay, WA, 6020 Australia (map)

DO YOU TELL OR SHARE STORIES? OF COURSE YOU DO.

BUT HAVE YOU CONSIDERED WHO GETS TO TELL THE STORY, WHO IS MISSING, AND WHO IT BENEFITS?

Stories can create positive change. When they are led by the community, stories become even more powerful. So, how can we better create and the tell these stories safely and ethically?

This introductory workshop will support individuals and organisations who create, tell and share Stories to:

  • rethink how to tell stories more powerfully by placing the Story Holder community at the centre

  • reflect on their own current storytelling policies, processes and practices (the 3Ps)

  • identify strategies to implement safe, ethical storytelling aligning the 3Ps

Two facilitators from Our Race Community will take participants through the five principles of Transformational Ethical Story Telling (T.E.S.T.) framework. This introductory workshop  will allow participants to understand how each principle can be applied and to determine which principles and actions need to be prioritised for each organisation’s Story Telling and community engagement processes. Key questions will be posed to allow participants to navigate the challenges faced when engaging with Story Holders as well as examples of how T.E.S.T. has been implemented effectively.
