Integrating your research with digital media technology through storytelling to support collaboration and convergence - this 90-minute webinar will help you explore and evaluate how the facilitation, creation and sharing of stories as digital stories can lead to a more powerful, deeper and more expansive sense of knowing.
Using a combination of presentation, inquiry and group discussion the 90-minute webinar, facilitated by StoryCenter’s Robert Kershaw and Allison Myers, will create space for participants to explore how storytelling can be aligned to tell authentic and meaningful narratives for NNA-CO researchers and community partners’ work. Participants will acquire a deeper knowledge of the power of storytelling while considering how perceptions and biases can leave significant gaps in the stories told and subsequent efforts to push community-focused initiatives forward. It will also explore critical ethical principles and questions: supporting storyteller wellbeing; the meaning of consent; ensuring and upholding local practices and protocols; sovereignty of the narrative; acknowledging ethical and cultural humility; the distribution (or not) of individual and community stories.
