Mapping Australian Homemade, Amateur & Do-it-Yourself Cultural Economies

Studies Australia's overlooked non-professional/homemade/amateur/DIY (HADIY) creative sector -- around 45% of Australians create outside professional or commercial cultural industries -- producing the first detailed qualitative mapping of HADIY activity and its relationship to the wider cultural economy, with particular attention to regional Australia and CALD/First Nations communities. Delvin's contribution (Work Package 4) delivers an open-source digital toolkit for HADIY communities.

Studies the huge amount of creative work Australians do at home for fun -- crafts, hobbies, DIY -- that usually goes uncounted, and builds a digital toolkit to support those communities.
