Digital storytelling is a short form of digital media production that allows everyday people to share aspects of their story.

Led by Dr Antonia Liguori from the School of Arts, English and Drama, attendees will follow a creative process where they will be able to develop a story and create a film that will focus on what society can do to address climate change.

Those who sign up to the workshops will work together as a group to make and share the digital stories, and will learn how to create storyboards, write a script and edit a video with guidance by trained facilitators.
