HealthjournalismeducationprojectsinthePilbaraandGeraldtonregionsFrom2005-2012,IworkedwiththeCombinedUniversitiesCentreforRuralHealth(CUCRH)andthejournalismprogram at Edith Cowan University (ECU) to promote a better understanding of Aboriginal culture andcommunities in Western Australia. The long-term aim of this project was to improve media reporting ofAboriginal issues asmany non-Aboriginal journalists nevermanage tomeet and talk with Aboriginal peopleabouttheir lifestyleandbeliefs,andthisoftenresults innarrowandmisinformedreporting. Inanattempttorespond to this current situation, eight final-year ECU journalism students were offered an opportunity byCUCRH to participate in a one-month journalism placement with Aboriginal communities in two WesternAustraliantownsinJuly2009,2010and2011.Attheendoftheplacement,thestudentswereaskedtoprepareabriefwrittenreportonwhattheyhadlearntfromtheexperience.WorkingalongsideAboriginalpeoplewasanespeciallyprofoundexperienceforme.”“Thetimetherehasbeenvaluableforlifelessonsasawhole.Ithastaught me not to stereotype a group of people.” “I cannot put into words how informative and useful thisexperiencewas,assistingme inbothmyworkand inmysocial interactionswith the indigenouscommunity.”“ThiswasthemostvaluablethingIhavedoneinthewholetimeIhavebeenatuni.Ilearnttobemoreconfident,culturallyaware,anddiscoveredthatIwanttoworkinthisarea”(StudentfeedbackonthePilbaraPlacement,2010-2011).
