The screening and forum, an event by Green Left and the Australia Cuba Friendship Society (ACFS), heard from retired secondary school teacher and former NSW Teachers’ Federation Executive member Bob Treasure and educator Ruth Ratcliffe. Ratcliffe is finalising her PhD on the changing relationships between communities and schools associated with a First Nations adult literacy campaign in three sites in far western New South Wales.  She was in Brewarrina, NSW, when the Cuban literacy program was implemented there. Lia Weitzel, Research and Campaign Officer at Literacy for Life Foundation (LFLF) who researched the Cuban “Yes, I Can” adult literacy campaign in Aboriginal Australia, said it was an alternative to commodified education. She also spoke about LFLF’s experience working with communities and community-controlled organisations and service providers to raise levels of adult literacy.
