Narratives grounded in dignity and humanity

By humanizing complex issues, we make narrative change work second nature for organizations working with the people they care for.

Change the way people engage and respond to our social issues.   

People volunteering together

As change-makers working towards long-term justice, progress momentum can vary and we question if people value the scale of our work.

Shifting long-held beliefs is more than just a one-off campaign.

As organizations, we want to share the issues and opportunities that we have deep knowledge about. But, we’ve seen too many examples of core values and objectives getting lost when we share our work across different channels.

It takes a multi-faceted strategy to put honest and compelling narratives in motion, which is the foundation for culture change.

How we do it

Far too often, communities are left out of important strategy work that impacts their lives. We work with organizations looking for a community-powered process over one-size-fits-all solutions. Together, we’ll design our way to shape a narrative strategy that’s grounded in the dignity and humanity of your community.

Design is a process used to create with intention. We use design to work alongside members from your organization and community to foster deep learning, inclusive collaboration, and purposeful testing.

Immersive Experience

Immersive storytelling can evoke lasting emotions that lead us to think differently. We incorporate creative, multi-sensory methods—both in our process and strategy output—that inspire meaningful dialogue and bold ideas for a new, desired future.

Sustainability

We help you deepen your organizational narrative practice and build a strategy that will span your social issue landscape. This involves pinpointing barriers to change and developing strategies to dismantle them over time.
