Miranda and Nicolette understand that starting an oral history project can be daunting. We want to equip you with the essentials, from project documentation like consent forms, to the technology you need (yes we include simple and free options!), and the must-do interview techniques. You’ll leave the workshop feeling confident, empowered, motivated, and with practical interviewing experience. You’ll also receive extra resources such as our top-pick websites and reading materials – which we use and recommend – so you know where to go if you get stuck. We believe learning is best done when it’s collaborative, fun, hands-on, and with time for questions and discussions, including learning what to do when the unexpected happens. Everyone welcome – no oral history experience required.
