We have done some effective marketing in various media about this project.

In Iceland they have published their experiences from the workshops at the University Of Iceland website (http://rannsoknasetur.hi.is/vinnusmidja_sogur_ad_nordan)

The other one is the invitation they made for recruiting young participants to their workshops.

In Denmark we went to the International Digital Storytelling Conference in Greece and did presentation and a paper which can be downloaded here RP_HenningsenLohmannOerngreen

Furthermore we had some international network who got inspired and used Twitter to present our project:

Last week we came home from the International Digital Storytelling Conference where we did a presentation of Stories From The North. It gave us a lot of publicity and the participants had a lot of questions about our stories and the future of the project.

International Digital Storytelling Conference: Current trends in digital storytelling.

The Nordic has sponsored us to join the conference and spread the news about Stories From The North. We are happy to take part of the conference where we will give a presentation about the project and our findings so far. We will show some stories from our platform.

About the conference:
The theme of the conference, “Current Trends in Digital Storytelling: Research & Practices”, signifies the transitional phase of Digital Storytelling (DST) towards an established community of research and practice. At this pivotal point, it is crucial to obtain a reflective mapping of the major current trends of research and practices in DST, emphasising the convergences and the divergences in the various perspectives, which crucially nurture and form the complexity of this diverse, yet functionally linked community.

The conference is scheduled from 21st to 23rd of September 2018. The conference will be hosted by the Technological Educational Institute of Ionian Islands in Zakynthos (Zante), Greece. Zakynthos is one of the most beautiful islands in Greece offering unique natural attractions and places of historical and cultural interest, thus being a highly popular tourist attraction. The conference dates were purposefully chosen to offer excellent weather conditions with relatively lower number of visitors

The Nordic & The Nordic Culture Fund has given us the possibility and ressources to establish this new Nordic Project called

`Stories from the North.`

Together with 3 other Nordic countries and partners the vision is to use digital storytelling as a method to gather stories around the Nordic cities and share them online and also at different events in the various countries.

“Branding is no longer about the stuff that you make, but about the stories you tell. Thevision of our project ´Stories from the North` is to let people create, share & tell life stories through Nordic Storytelling Labs and an online digital storytelling platform.
Our goal is to create a Nordic Digital Storytelling Platform for authentic personal stories told by young and old people from Denmark, Norway, Iceland & The Faroe Island.
The project is called Stories from the North and has a mission to gather and preserve authentic stories of human life told and made by people from the Nordic Countries.

We make a difference by creating open Nordic Storytelling Labs in each country where young people are invited to join a workshop. The stories being produced by each participants will be shared on a digital storytelling platform which will open up for a conversation and start a dialogue around the stories being shared.

This new strategic storytelling platform will host digital stories from both the cities and also the outskirts and countryside of each country. By letting people share their stories about different subjects such as identity, culture, food, traditions, love, and favourite places it can tell a common Nordic story.
You should back up our project because here we will create a space where all the autenticNordics voices will be heard and shared. We will let people tell their own life story on a 2-3 days workshops where they create a 2-3 minutes small digital story.”
