The workshop entailed a full day of events (led by PI Dr Keown, Co-I Dr Sabeti, and Marshallese performance poet Kathy Jetnil-Kijiner), focused around the teaching of creative writing. Participants comprised a core of 30 trainee schoolteachers, with additional places made available to in-post RMI schoolteachers.
