Past Present Future Change
A storytelling toolkit which will help empower, enable and encourage marginalised groups to share their life story and help them build a brighter future. ‘Past Present Future Change’ is aimed at youth workers, teachers and activists to help harness the power of storytelling to deliver positive change in post-conflict societies.
The downloadable toolkit, available here, enables facilitators to help young people to tell their story and transform their experience. It was created by Rory Doherty, founder of ‘Voicing the Void’ in Northern Ireland, with support from Social Change Initiative and Quaker Service.
A webinar launching the project featured Cristina Jiménez, co-founder of United We Dream, the renowned youth-led organisation using storytelling to push for change in immigration legislation in the United States. In this audio clip from the event Cristina discusses the theory behind her storytelling work.
