Croeso Project - CRE
Rich media website which has video newsletter functionality,
a quite unique use of interactive online digital media
The Commission for Racial Equality (CRE) are running a 3
year project in Wales titled “Croeso” , aims to celebrate
the diverse people and cultures of Wales by working with a
broad range of organisations to promote understanding of
language, faith, community and inclusion.
A key part of the early stages of the project was to run a
series of Public Seminars, or Citizen’s Forums, throughout
Wales to give everyone the opportunity to have their say.
All of these meetings were filmed, as well as getting
opinions from key individuals and groups down on film, to
“state the arguments”. Edited versions of all of this has
been included on the website, and therefore a good cross
section of the population of Wales is already represented on
the website. As time goes on, more opportunities to interact
with the website will be created, so that this truly does
become a place for people to meet, discuss, share
experiences and opinions and hopefully break down many of
the barriers which exist between people. Skills transference
to CRE staff have kept the costs of filming digitally down
to an absolute minimum.
An extremely exciting and ground breaking project, that will
interest those who;
Are excited by the potential of online debate stimulated by
video.
Might be interested in creating a similar, cost effective
forum for their own organisations.
Are keen to explore the potential of a Broadband
communications centre.
Already have a lot of video (VHS) and DVD in their
organisations and are looking for a channel to exploit this
IP.
