Children's Media Symposium

If you've ever loved an Australian kids' TV show and if you care about the future of Australian-made TV for kids, please take the survey via the link below 👇
These surveys are part of a large research project being undertaken with researchers from Swinburne in partnership with the Australian Children's Television Foundation (ACTF) -- the amazing people who brought us 'Round the Twist', 'Lift Off', and 'Dance Academy' (among so many other Aussie TV treasures).
This is not-for-profit, ridgy-didge, nation-wide research that will make a genuine difference to how and what Australian children's television is made. Please also share the survey link far and wide! THANKS!
