The Schools Program
"In My Own Words," was a project designed and implemented by the Voice Box to give young Vietnamese women in secondary schools throughout Melbourne an opportunity to create their own 30 minute radio show which was publicly broadcast as part of our timeslot.
From July to October 2004, we worked with 6 schools: Preston Girl’s Secondary College, Wellington Secondary College, Killester Girl’s College, Debney Park Secondary College, Melbourne Girl’s College and Coomoora Secondary College to create a total of 8 diverse shows. The process for each group involved 3 workshops: 1) Introduction to the program 2) Scripting 3) Recording at the 3CR studios. The students were trained in such skills as "panelling," (operating the sound equipment) and scripting a show based on an issue of interest to them. These resulted in shows such as, "The Vietnamese Language," "How Vietnamese people make money," and "To confront or not to confront."
We congratulate all the teachers who made this program possible and the young women who generously shared their stories on air. (Article about this program can be downloaded from Publications under "Find Our Voice".)

How you can collaborate with us
The Voice Box radio program also allows us to design and implement other media projects which empower young Vietnamese women as leaders in their own lives and in their communities. We will be updating the website with details on such projects as they occur. Contact us if you have any questions about our projects, would like to become involved or would like us to support you in doing something you’re passionate about.
