Knowing Ways, Community Resilience and Story

Hamish Fyfe, Director George Ewart Evans Centre for Storytelling

• Life has no meaning independently of the stories that are told about it.”

London: Blackwell, 2004.

A Citizen Media

• ‘Citizen media has grown from a promise to a legitimate presence in today’s media sphere. Armed with easy-to-use Web publishing tools, always-on connections, and increasingly powerful digital and mobile devices, citizen journalists are contributing many varieties of information and news: first-person, grass-roots reporting, not only in text but with photos, audio and video; commentary and analysis; fact-checking, watchdogging, filtering and editing the ever-growing mass of information online’. (Bowman and Willis, 2009)

• Thanks
