Storytelling Project

Flemington Kensington Community Legal Centre (FKCLC) had challenged the system since it was established. The Storytelling Project and timeline has captured the work and robust culture of FKCLC that had driven social change and fostered strong networks, which will continue under IMCL.

We are grateful for the stories and guidance provided by the project steering committee and the people who spoke to FKCLC. They included Anthony Kelly, Ash Thomas, Carmen Tommasi, Daniel Haile-Michael, Denise Gardner, Fay Spear, Jude McCulloch, Genevieve Nihill, Gregor Husper, Jenny Si, Joel Townsend, Karen Pyke, Melanie Poole, Neil Cole, Nimet Gurleyen, and Ruth Eyakem.

Their stories are included in the booklet 40 Years Challenging the System and in the short film below.

Inner Melbourne Community Legal acknowledges the traditional owners of the land on which we work, the Boon wurrung and Wurundjeri peoples of the Kulin nation. We recognise that sovereignty was never ceded and pay our respects to their cultures and Elders past and present. This always was and always will be Aboriginal Land.

Everyone is welcome at Inner Melbourne Community Legal, regardless of race, religion, gender or sexuality.
