Do you enjoy listening to people’s stories about Life on the Levels? DigVentures are looking for home-based volunteers to map the fascinating oral histories collected for the Living Levels project. Participants will access the oral histories recorded, digging into transcripts and locating audio snippets that can be included on an interactive map.
As a participant, you’ll be mapping memories from the oral history interviews using our interactive map, making place-based stories available for everyone to enjoy. We’ll provide the tools you need to upload information to the online and interactive map. Each mini project will take around three hours and everything can be done from home at a time that suits you!
Interested? We’re holding an introductory workshop at 7:00PM Thursday 2nd September 2021. You’ll learn the basics of oral history research and online mapping, finding out everything you need to undertake your mapping oral histories project.
All volunteers will be supported throughout, with an active WhatsApp group and mentoring sessions to share findings and hear the stories located. And, if you can't attend the introductory workshop, you can still register to access training resources.
