Why This Project, Michael?
“I always appreciate a project where adult learners can discover new audiences and connect with a wider community. It's not easy to develop the skills that support resilience, when people have had bad experiences of education.

For this project, I will be supporting and encouraging teachers and learners around Australia to share their stories with each other and the world.”
