In the wake of COVID-19, it's easy to forget that only a few short months ago, hundreds of communities across Australia were faced with fire and smoke, homes destroyed and one of the most difficult bushfire seasons Australia has ever seen. Not only has the rise of COVID-19 slowed recovery efforts, as the media focus their attentions on a global crisis, those who have lost everything are now also left behind.
Premiering on Tuesday 28th April, the Community Broadcasting Association of Australia's documentary series From the Embers takes listeners to the very heart of nine communities affected by the recent bushfire crisis. From the Embers is an important reminder to us all of the essential role that storytelling plays in ensuring we allow those affected to be honoured and heal, without feeling overlooked.
Created in partnership with nine community radio stations who faced the frontline of the fire, with generous support from the Judith Neilson Institute of Journalism and Ideas and the Paul Ramsay Foundation.
