About The Project

CHANGING LIVES is a project engaging Arabic speaking young people
with digital arts and Community Cultural Development. Empowering
them with skills to make and tell their own stories and share them on
the net via their own video blogs, or vlogs.

Check out the first phase of the project where young Iraqi women
living in Western Sydney made digital stories about their experiences
of harrowing journeys by boat to Australia, their time in detention,
stories of longing for family left behind, and dreams of future lives
in a new land. You can find these stories via the Videos page.
