WHO WE ARE
The RDR board comprises eminent audio documentary makers, podcast producers, broadcast industry professionals and academics from around the world. Their combined knowledge and expertise will help produce a model of assessment that truly ties together practice with theory. RDR emanates from the University of Wollongong, Australia. The canon of documentaries is intended to be preserved with meta-data at the National Film and Sound Archive of Australia, rights permitting, and can be listened to online (audio links within article pdf).
