The project, <em>Welcome to Blacktown</em>, sought to learn about Blacktown’s many and varied communities, together with the innovative and inspired social change work that is happening there. Over six months, the Impact Studios team conducted almost 100 interviews with people connected to Blacktown, exploring and investigating the question of how communities thrive. The interviews were rich, broad and non-extractive. We sought to understand the full context of what each person was doing. We listened to them tell stories of their lives, on their own terms: their families, their passions, their work and what motivates them to do it, their challenges and achievements. </p> <p>We are Blacktown is produced by <a href="https://impactstudios.edu.au/">Impact Studios</a> at the <a href="https://www.uts.edu.au/">University of Technology Sydney</a>, in partnership with <a href="https://www.paulramsayfoundation.org.au/">The Paul Ramsay Foundation</a>. </p>
