All Around You is an online platform which enables organisations and individuals to share community-developed multimedia content through a common online portal. This online publishing platform is aimed at organisations which are:
- Non-profit community organisations developing multimedia about their local community
- Non-governmental organisations developing multimedia relating to their mission
- Local community groups developing grassroots multimedia content
- Small cultural institutions developing media arts content
- Youth Arts organisations archiving their work and developing new media works
- Local councils – cultural wing, facilitating community-led multimedia content
The aim of the All Around You website is to make accessible and organise all the cultural content that local community based organisations in Australia publish. Making that content accessible and organising it in a meaningful way means finding connections between content published by different groups. These connections might be based on a shared cultural background or a common organisational focus. Making connections between content will allow users of the system to share knowledge and create new organisational relationships.
