In 2007, a dynamic team of multi-media trainers took their unique engagement model to a small school in the traumatized Australian indigenous community of Aurukun. The training was designed to inspire young people to engage with digital media, express their personal stories and develop capacity in new media technologies that would then inspire them in other educational area.
