Filming an Interview

Ethical content creation workshop

For organisations that gather lived experiences

Stories bring your work to life, but capturing them can be difficult, especially if the storyteller's journey has been challenging.

Learn how to gather, publish and re-use stories ethically, using trauma-informed practices.
