Australian YCW Oral History Project

The Australian YCW and YCW Holdings have launched an oral history project that aims to record the history of the movement.

"The aim of the Project is to capture the life stories of people involved in the YCW and NCGM from its inception in Australia to 2010," writes project director Dr Melissa Walsh on the project website ycwarchive.wordpress.com.

"These recorded stories will be added to the YCW Archive, and will be a valuable resource for researchers and also for future YCW members.

"The Archive is seeking volunteers willing to conduct interviews in their home state, town and community with former members of the YCW.

"If you are interested in joining the Research Team as an interviewer, please send an email to archive@ycw.org.au or complete the Expression of Interest form below by April 11, 2014.

"A training Workshop for Interviewers will be held in Melbourne on May 3-4, 2014."
