the Big Issue turns one

[interview - 6 minutes 35 seconds]

The Big Issue Australia magazine is a self-help project which aims to provide gainful employment for its venders - most of whom were once unemployed, many - sometimes homeless. The vendors receive $1 for every copy sold. July 1997 was the first anniversary of the Big Issue. Artsalive joined birthday celebrations to find out more about the magazine.
