Reducing barriers in research and writing

As part of our ongoing commitment to creating educational opportunities for potential authors, reviewers and editors, in May 2024, First Nations Health and Wellbeing – The Lowitja Journal ran a free webinar on spoken word research.

The session, ‘Reducing barriers in research and writing’, was presented by Alison Elliott, a Family Therapist, Workforce Development Trainer and Team Leader, First Nations Team, at La Trobe University. Alison shared her personal experience of growth and confidence through ‘writing’ in this way, with a black-and-white model of working collaboratively.
