The participants were alumni of the Korin Gamadji Institute (KGI). KGI recruits Aboriginal young people from across southeast Australia (mainly Victoria) to take part in an Aboriginal youth leadership programs. Two workshops were conducted at the Australian Centre for the Moving Image (ACMI), located in central Naarm/Melbourne, where young people acquired new digital skills and were exposed to a range of sophisticated media-making technologies. The final workshop shifted to Camp Jungai, a place of cultural significance for the Victorian Aboriginal community, where participants were able to experiment with mobile technologies (iPads and apps) and explore story-making in a community-based space. As a longitudinal study, the digital storytelling workshops exposed our developing intercultural research agenda as it progressed throughout the project. Researchers worked closely with KGI and the young participants to learn from them about their ambitions for the project, including young people's capacity to create innovative digital stories that reflected their identities and culture, alongside their lived experiences and ideas for the future. As an intercultural research project, the digital storytelling workshops revealed the significance of two-way learning and of supporting Aboriginal led programs to promote Indigenous knowledge exchange as an essential component in nurturing Aboriginal young people's connections to their culture and identity.
