These diverse and creative products are an outcome of an innovative youth engaged participatory action research project that examined spaces of encounter between Indigenous and racial minority girls and young women, age 12 to 18 years. The program employed Indigenous and Taiko drumming, discussions, and digital media workshops to give voice to girls’ experiences of living in a relatively homogenous, mid-sized city like Victoria.
