Raising Kids Together wins Award
The Raising Kids Together DVD, produced by ICE, has won the NSW Department of Ageing, Disability and Homecare the prestigious Government Award at the National Multicultural Marketing Awards.
The DVD, CD and booklet of Raising Kids Together provides information in Arabic, Assyrian, Dari, Dinka and Juba Arabic for families who have a child or young person with a disability.
The DVD tells real life stories using a combination of drama and documentary styles to convey information relating to disability. It also employs storytelling techniques to deal with stigma, cultural taboos, discriminating, shame and isolation.
Before this there was no audio material available in these languages, on this subject.
One thousand copies were made in the five languages. The demand was great and stocks were quickly exhausted.
ICE congratulates DADHC and Producer Barry Gamba on this fantastic achievement.
