Key Three: Deadly Story
HRAFF exists to create an ecosystem of individuals and organisations who champion creativity and human rights. As part of this mission, we are proud to partner with various community organisations who are already leading the way in this regard, to offer three practical steps that our audience can take to join the movement for social change.
Firestarter - The Story of Bangarra
As part of HRAFF 2021, our community partner Deadly Story presents three steps you can take to act on the insights presented in 'Firestarter - The Story of Bangarra'.
Deadly Story is a resource that aims to support Aboriginal children and young people to grow in their knowledge of; Who you are, who you belong to, where you belong, where you come from, what you do, what you believe, what symbolises your Aboriginal culture.
