In putting this edition together we thought about the different aspects of the toy we wanted to discuss and grouped them thematically into tours. These tours evolved as we developed them with new ideas for articles being developed along the way. We used Miro, an online whiteboard platform to collaborate on and develop our ideas.

Merida in Voyager
Tour 1 serves as an introductory tour, providing background information on Disney and Pixar and how they developed the film Brave and the character of Merida.
Tour 2 looks at Merida through a feminist lens analysing her place among Disney princesses and the ways in which Brave subverts the classic fairytale narrative.
In tour 3 we take a broader look at Scotland and the cultures and histories that define it.
