Digital Yarning is a fresh story platform co-created by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander and non-Indigenous students, with Bridgette and teachers at Brisbane Youth Education and Training Centre (BYETC), Brisbane Youth Detention Centre (BYDC).

 

21 digital works illuminate identity, life and connecting to country and culture. 

 

Digital capacity outcomes are shown in online videos and at BYDC, QUT, HitNet kiosks and State Library Queensland's Indigenous Knowledge Centre, kuril dhagun. Platforming young voices in connected digital spaces shapes inclusive futures.
