Podcast

A series of podcasts focused on discussions with leading experts on Digital Inclusion and some of our fantastic projects.

Episode 1: Introduction to our Podcasts
Digital Stories is a podcast produced by the Tavistock Institute of Human Relations for the Medici Knowledge Community. Each episode explores what digital exclusion looks like for each of the target groups included in the Medici Catalogue and focuses on good practice interventions that have been put in place to try and reduce digital exclusion. In each episode we speak to practitioners with experience of working with each target group to understand how others are approaching digital inclusion and why it matters in an increasingly digitalised world.

Hosts: David Drabble and Rachel Hastings-Caplan (in future episodes we’ll be conducting the interviews)

Producer: Lucy Walker

Theme music composed by: Philip Corran
