Current Research Projects

Our team is currently running a research project from early 2024 to mid 2025 where 20 people with lived experience of prison will receive free training and support to develop skills as speakers and advocates in the ACT/Queanbeyan region. The free training will cover things such as:

Creative storytelling

Working with the media

Sharing stories safely

Political campaigning

Cultural support (for First Nations participants)

And much more

​

Lived experience can come from the adult and/or youth justice system, with all participants required to be aged over 18 and to live or work in the ACT/Queanbeyan region. The project will use a mix of online and face-to-face training, as well as provide a range of support for paid speaking engagements in the future.   

​
