BC Cancer invites both patients and caregivers, who have accessed care at BC Cancer, to participate in an 'Introduction Session' to learn more about an exciting opportunity to participate in a digital storytelling workshop. Participants of this session will be introduced to the process of creating their very own 3-5 minute short film, also called a digital story. The stories will be centred around their experience of accessing care at BC Cancer, with the intent to continuously improve the quality of care offered to cancer patients and their families. Storyteller wellbeing will be at the centre of this digital storytelling process. Participants will always have control over their story, both during the process and with the final product.
We are dedicated to ensuring that the digital storytelling workshop is a space where diverse experiences are recognized, valued, and amplified. We warmly welcome participants of all backgrounds, communities, and identities, and especially encourage those with a range of lived experiences to take part.
Who is Leading this Session?
This session will be led by Krystle Schofield, who is a Level 2 Common Language Digital Storytelling Facilitator and Photographer. With a background in design and education, and lived experience as a rare disease parent, she specializes in creating a supportive space for sharing diverse perspectives, prioritizing ethics in storytelling, and helping people connect to their voice.
