Many stories matter. Stories have been used to dispossess and to malign. But stories can also be used to empower, and to humanize. Stories can break the dignity of a people. But stories can also repair that broken dignity.

Supporting people who actually lived the experiences in telling their own stories leads to impactful storytelling and empowering communication initiatives that resonate with your communities and stakeholders.

Allison and Trauman were amazing. They gave us a really informative, entertaining, and exceptional workshop that lasted for 2 months. That started with virtual sessions to the very last part of the workshop that was held in Morocco. Really loved the progress seen throughout the workshop for myself and fellow trainees.
