An interesting read! I think community arts can be really effective at exploring the different facets that come into play with social injustice. The arts, especially music is a major passion for the majority of young people. It can serve to help them to see themselves and the world differently; the 'greyness' you were talking about earlier, allowing for a positive contribution to their own futures - as well as society's. I would be really interested to learn about participatory audits that included music making. Hi there guys!

This stuff is so important when working with young people - fascinating to see how participatory educational approaches are being applied in this context. Keep us posted on this! What a lovely image!

We get nearer to this kind of thing when we are working with groups trying to shift their perceptions and change their attitudes to themselves and their potential. We sometimes use art and singing to encourage former child workers to dream about a better future not involving factory work. By getting them to visualise their dreams,we can encourage them to stick with school to reach these objectives. Hi Tone, really interesting thought.

In fact it makes me wonder whether your audits ever include more creative approaches? I wonder whether doing work with drama, music and film would be an interesting way of extracting what people really want and really need?
