What is Graphic Recording?

Imagine someone listening carefully to a conversation and then translating the main ideas into pictures and words. That's graphic recording! It's a powerful tool that helps everyone feel heard and see their ideas reflected back in a creative way.

Making the Forum Engaging and Accessible

During the forum, Sarah used a digital tablet to draw everything live! These visuals were projected on a screen for everyone to see. This made the forum more engaging by adding a fun visual element, and it also made the information more accessible by presenting it in a different way.

Boosting Memory and Understanding

Did you know that pictures can help us remember things better? Studies show that information combined with visuals is easier to remember. This is why graphic recording is such a great tool – it helps people retain the key messages from the forum for longer.

Celebrating Indigenous Voices

We're especially proud to have worked with Sarah Cook, who is based right here in Mparntwe/Alice Springs. Sarah is passionate about social justice and has dedicated the past 25 years to highlighting Indigenous stories, voices, and culture. This is reflected in the way she listens, illustrates, and works, ensuring everyone feels comfortable sharing their perspectives.
