We are a unique transdisciplinary agency
that works to drive deep change.

Innovate. Transform. Activate.

Unleashing the power of narrative, research and social innovation for community-led change


We take on projects that use knowledge and innovative ideas to drive societal change. We work across disciplines and focus on wholes and relationships rather than just parts. To transfer and activate knowledge, we specialize in storytelling techniques, narrative shaping, and humanistic communications.

Change doesn’t just come from discovering new knowledge and new methods. It comes from replacing outdated narratives with new ones and opening up the space for new solutions. Our holistic approach to project development balances long-term vision, sustainable growth, inclusion, and authentic relationships.

Narrative
For Change
Narrative For Change
 
Narrative is not just effective storytelling; it is a powerful catalyst for societal transformation. Narratives shape our perceptions, beliefs, and actions, and by harnessing their potential, we can drive meaningful change. We have developed a “futures narrative” method that embraces different levels. We work with communities and organizations to enhance their understanding of the power of stories for transformation at a personal, communal and societal level. Our team of skilled storytellers, strategists, and change-makers specializes in crafting narratives that inspire, engage, and mobilize individuals and communities towards a common vision. Through our deep understanding of cultural dynamics and our ability to identify the underlying narratives that influence behavior, we develop compelling narratives that challenge the status quo, shift mindsets, and foster empathy. New, inclusive and sustainable futures demand that we amplify marginalized voices and empower diverse perspectives. Together, we can harness the power of narrative to transform our futures at a personal, community and societal level.

Communication, dissemination and exploitation strategy
 
For us, a communication and dissemination strategy is not a mechanical process of creating an asset, targeting it to an audience, and measuring short-term gains. Instead, we believe in a holistic approach where communication is a pillar of your ongoing relationship with all stakeholders and at the core of the project strategy for more impact and relevance. In our in-depth and “slow-content” approach, we’ll communicate not only the results of your work, but the entire journey, building support for your goals by sharing the struggles, opportunities, and victories along the way. We support small- and large-scale projects, helping to make them more relevant and impactful and to design strategies for exploitation of their results.

Strategic narrative development
 
For communities, organizations, research projects or companies, strategic narrative development goes beyond being a mere communications technique; it forms the bedrock of a long-term project by creating cohesion. It involves identifying the deep story, understanding the cultural currents, and embracing the highest aspirations of the endeavor. This process is essential for effective changemaking, as it charts the course from our present reality to a better future. As a long-term partner engaged from the project’s early stages, we specialize in shaping narratives that underpin lasting relationships between stakeholders. By delving into the intricacies of the deep story and its cultural contexts, we establish a solid foundation for transformation and ensure that our collective journey is coherent and purpose-driven. Our strategic narrative approach not only guides communication but also facilitates meaningful change. It enables us to connect the dots between the current state and the desired future, empowering stakeholders to navigate the path of progress. Through a well-crafted narrative, we ignite passion, foster engagement, and inspire action, ultimately propelling us towards the transformative outcomes we seek.
