The Carlin How researchers met with Paul and Carrie yesterday for the workshop on digital media. ICT connectivity was not available so the group discussed ways of using the research blog and will follow this up with blogging activities with Steve at the school over the summer.
The group also used the workshop space to plan the community mapping in Carlin How and Brotton. The researchers are about to start visiting service providers and organisations in their mapping zone.
The group also talked about the recent job losses in Carlin How and how this impacts on the local community. Stories about the impact of the recession on local livelihoods can be found in the Gazette.
