In a moment where disinformation, fear, and polarization deeply influence policies and public perception, the power of storytelling is an essential tool to strengthen community driven-planning. This session explores how storytelling and narrative strategy can be woven into any stage of a community-driven planning process —from visioning to implementation. In this 2.5 hour interactive virtual workshop, facilitators, organizers, and planners will learn how to use storytelling to frame issues and solutions in ways that build unity, counter dominant narratives, and communicate a shared vision of resiliency, equity, and justice.
