Abstract

A partnership with the Hmong American community produced “The Wildlife and Wilderness Exploration Show,” a DVD that puts a modern twist on traditional Hmong storytelling. Key educational messages in the DVD were identified through interviews with Hmong natural resource professionals. The messages are delivered in entertaining segments in the DVD, which was created through collaboration with the Hmong arts and theater community. In contemporary Hmong American culture, DVDs are a popular form of entertainment and cultural learning, making the format appropriate for new refugees and elders with limited English proficiency, as well as the broader and multigenerational Hmong community.
