Global Lab: Storytelling with and for Children


Global Platform Online

(Mon 24 Oct: 2pm Online)

Four storytellers share their thoughts about our vital exchange with the next wave of storytellers. Georgiana Keable and Dawne McFarlane explain the nature and nurture approach of their new book Fairytales, Families and Forests. Ailie Finlay introduces us to My Kind of Book, promoting inclusive books so that every child can enjoy a good story, including children with complex additional needs. On Diwali, Geeta Ramanujam shares her Tales of the World and decades of work with India’s children

~~~~~~~~~~

An international exploration of oral storytelling and its interaction with tradition, ecological passion, social engagements and contemporary renaissance worldwide. Held in association with The Earth Stories Collection and Earth Charter International. Each session includes presentations, guided discussions and a short interval. Hosted by Festival Director Donald Smith.

Over the past two years we have enjoyed being part of a fantastic online storytelling community across the world. We would love to further connect with you in our digital storytelling and development sessions, so whether you are based in Scotland, or further afield, let’s keep that fire lit on our global platforms.

~~~~~~~~~~

In Scotland’s Year of Stories, the Scottish International Storytelling Festival: Keep It Lit invites everyone to the ceilidh; locally, nationally and globally. At the core of Scotland’s culture and identity is the hospitable hearth - a place of solidarity and welcome for friend and stranger alike. Round that symbolic fire, experiences and memories are shared and hope affirmed.
