BLACK DOG INSTITUTE RESEARCH
​
Our goal is to remind us of our shared humanity.
​
Woven Threads and Black Dog Institute have conducted research using the films in series one and two of the Woven Threads catalogue. Series one shared moments of hope in a refugee's journey, whilst the focus of Series two is on people living with mental health challenges. This research was designed to understand the responses to viewing for people who watched these animations. This research was reviewed and approved by The University of New South Wales Human Research Ethics Committee (HC210526).
​
The research has been published and is available here.
