Stories of courage: Part one – caring for wild animals during bushfires
In the face of worsening climate disasters, the Sydney Environment Institute's Shoalhaven project seeks to understand the work being done by communities to protect animals during catastrophic fires, and how this can be better supported. As a way of reflecting back the wealth of information community members generously shared, the research team wrote and recorded a series of vignettes incorporating key themes and findings of the project. Each story is a fictionalised representation of real events, and is an amalgamation of community members’ experiences. The characters are made up, but their experiences are based on those of our interview participants. Hear SEI researcher Freya MacDonald read the stories.Read by SEI Researcher Freya MacDonaldLearn more about this project here Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
