At Global Village we use design, art and technology to develop pathways for people to connect, share and help one an other. OUR NEW PROJECT - POWERED BY SHARING STORY No.1, an A3, free to the reader magazine featuring stories submitted by everyday people, who are willing to share an insight or a learning. Design and art have the power to connect, inspire and heal. A powerful force in breaking down stigma and humanising life. STORY offers a new way to talk about mental and emotional wellbeing, taking stigma away by acknowledging that through the imperfect experiences of life, there are learnings and insights and these are important to pass on to others just like our indigenous brothers and sisters have been doing for centuries. HOW IT WORKS STORY is only possible when people choose to use business to influence positive change. Corporates are able to show their support for emotional wellbeing and community by sponsoring STORY and then gifting a copy out, be it to staff, shareholders or community. This means readers are able to access STORY for free and corporates are able to come together and stamp their support in solidarity for humankind. If your company wishes to Power Up STORY No.1, reach out. OUR INTENTION Is to highlight the power we hold in sharing our life experiences with others, even strangers, and provide comfort in the knowing that we are not alone. RESPECT We will never be able to truly understand the sorrow of the stolen generations and the impacts of colonisation that it has had on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples but we can choose to be a part of a different future.⁣⁣ We respectfully acknowledge and celebrate the Traditional Owners of the land throughout Australia and pay our respects to their Elders, children and young people of past, current and future generations.
