Conclusion
Digital storytelling remains a viable, important way for diverse communities
to connect with each other and with others. However, when working with
diverse community members, we must carefully consider context (what to
record, what to share and where to share). Co-design provides a method to
develop a tailor-made approach when considering a complex set of institu-
tional, policy, technical and narrative frameworks.
We argue that it is important for diverse communities to create digital stories
in creative, meaningful ways, and it is important for them to have the skills and
technology to do so in safe spaces where they feel comfortable (e.g. in indi-
vidual or private spaces such as at home, in group settings such as workshops or
out and about in the community using mobile and other technologies). If we,
as researchers, designers and advocates, are responsive to participants’ needs
and desires, and we support participants in their endeavours, then digital stories
can potentially generate significant social impact and better enrich the lives of
people from diverse and marginalised communities.
