two hours to change how your cause gets told
A practical introduction to narratives for social change, designed for groups of up to 30 people.
For teams at foundations, nonprofits, purpose-driven companies and universities · up to 30 people · 2 hours · in person or online
01
why start here
Not every team can set aside a full day. This session is the way in: enough to see clearly which stories are working for or against what you want to achieve, and to leave with a first exercise done.
02
what happens in two hours
- An opening practice to feel how a story changes what seems possible.
- A shared language so your team can talk about narratives with clarity.
- A first map of the dominant, emerging, contested and missing narratives around your issue.
- A listening guide for telling stories without extracting them: how to return voice to the people living them.
- One concrete commitment for the next two weeks.
03
what you leave with
A starter narrative map, a shared language to keep the conversation going, and a list of next steps. If you want to go deeper, the one-day workshop picks up exactly where we stop.
frequently asked questions
Is it a talk or a workshop?
Both: about twenty minutes of framing, then we work on your topic.
Does it work for larger teams?
Yes, up to 30 people in one room or one call.
How much does it cost?
Request a call and we’ll send a tailored proposal; there is a solidarity rate for small nonprofits.
