Indigenous media and community listening
Harnessing the power of the spoken word for urban and regional Indigenous communities
This project seeks to discover the role that radio as a medium plays in the lives of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities in urban areas and major regional hubs in Queensland.
‘We seek to discover what the role of radio and the multiple forms of digital radio and online media currently plays for these communities. We look forward to understanding further, how these mediums provide connection; access to health information and services; access to information, messages and Indigenous perspectives; and the connection with the broader Australian community.’
