Participatory process. Strategic rigour. Cultural power.
Theory of Change
Lasting transformation begins with the people most affected by a problem. Through participatory practice, research rigour and creative media, we help communities surface their own knowledge, shape their own narratives and influence the systems that shape their lives.
The Impact
Rooted in Community
We begin by centring those most directly impacted by an issue.Through participatory research and learning partnerships, we build collective insight and shared understanding of the systems at play.
01
Rigorous by Design
Our methods are designed for integrity and impact.We embed reflection, evaluation, and learning into every stage so that knowledge created with communities carries the same weight as academic research.
02
Building Voice through Storytelling
We translate insight into story – producing community-owned media and creative outputs that amplify lived experience, shift narrative, and build collective confidence.
03
Influencing Systems and Culture
Through broadcast-quality content, commissioned research, and partnerships with institutions and funders, we move ideas from the margins to the mainstream – shaping policy, public dialogue, and practice.
04
Change We Aim For
We work towards a future shaped by community wisdom, shared power, and systemic accountability.
The future we’re helping to build looks like this:
- Communities own and use their knowledge to advocate for change.
- Institutions and funders adopt and resource participatory and equitable approaches.
- Public discourse becomes more truthful, nuanced, and inclusive.
- Each project is a practice in power-sharing – an experiment in how knowledge can be built differently and used for collective good.
- Systems shift toward justice, care, and accountability.
