Ollie's Island website and CD-ROM
Objective:
Ollie’s Island is an interactive multimedia educational program that gives different sectors of the community an understanding and appreciation of the full chain of production and consumption for everything we need in life - with a focus on Australia.
The objective of the program is to reconnect the consumer to the environmental, social and economic impacts of their consumption so that they have an understanding and appreciation of where everything they eat, drink, use and wear comes from.

Financial Supporters: AWI, Dairy Australia, FWPRDC, HAL, RIRDC
Content Supporters: APL, AWI, Dairy Australia, FRDC, FWPRDC, GRDC, HAL, MLA, RIRDC

The Ollie’s Island CD ROM was distributed to every school in Australia early in 2007.
