Creative Interventions for Marginalised Youth:
The Risky Business Project
by Angela O’Brien and Kate Donelan
Increasingly, policy makers and social researchers are asking if the arts can provide marginalised youth with positive and creative activities which draw them away from dangerous life choices towards a greater sense of self worth and social connectedness. Creative Interventions for Marginalised Youth reports on the Risky Business research project, a four-year cross-disciplinary investigation into the use of the creative arts as an intervention for young people ‘at risk’ in rural and urban Victoria, Australia. Risky Business was the first multi-site longitudinal study of this kind in Australia, and was undertaken form late 2002 to 2006. The research was conducted through case studies of ten arts programs which covered a range of art
forms, including dance, drama, music, theatre performance, stand-up comedy, circus, puppetry, photography, visual art and creative writing.
