MMSD February 2020: See Me, Hear Me (eng)

An interesting project that involves the participation of the Kampung Halaman Foundation from 12 February to 10 March 2018. Dian Herdiany, Nur Wulandari and Rachma Safitri from Kampung Halaman joined the workshop along together with Afia Pina, participant from Bangladesh. The project hosted by Griffith University, specifically Griffith Film School, Griffith International Business Development Unit and Griffith’s Interfaith & Cultural Dialogue Centre, was facilitated by Kinetic Collective and funded by the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT).

Facilitated in Australia, the program aimed to build the skills and capacity of women working in the film and media industry in Bangladesh and Indonesia and provide a platform to discuss and develop strategies for addressing gender equality in the media at a local, national and international level. The project provided training for filmmakers from predominantly Muslim countries in technical film skills, online media, facilitation and community dialogue, networking and stakeholder engagement to capture discussion on changing identities.

Four participants are mentored by Jan Cattoni and Samina Ali to develop their own stories based on research and personal experience. Four short films as project output were released at an event in Brisbane on International Women’s Day 2018.

Kampung Halaman hope that the stories can be used to start conversations about other girls/ women’s personal experiences, ignite the courage them to speak up, think critically and create a valuable dialogue with a diverse audience.
