Storytelling for Social Justice

Storytelling is the single most powerful tool to ignite human potential and achieve social justice. As both a vehicle for empathy and a tool for advocacy, the narrative of someones story can break-down barriers which otherwise divides us. This workshop uses case-study examples of how the rising generation is effectively using transmedia and storytelling to breakdown silos, stigmas and social constructs. In the spirit of discovery and inspiration, this interactive workshop also aims to break down the fourth wall by empowering you the attendee to build your authentic narrative and earn the capacity to unleash your unique genius as a change-maker.
