Photography, Film and Digital Storytelling - Using Creative Media to Prevent Sorcery Accusation Related Violence

One type of violence experienced by women and men in Papua New Guinea is that linked to accusations of sorcery. In 2015, the Papua New Guinea government launched the Sorcery and Witchcraft Accusation Related Violence National Action Plan (Sorcery National Action Plan) to address violence in these cases. As part of the Sorcery National Action Plan, the Queensland University of Technology, in partnership with the Centre for Social and Creative Media at the University of Goroka, is researching and developing communication strategies to effect social change.
