Ethical and Effective Storytelling in Advocacy
A new report considers the benefits and challenges of storytelling in human rights and social justice advocacy.
The report, ‘When I Tell My Story, I’m in Charge: Ethical and Effective Storytelling in Advocacy’, sets out a range of approaches, techniques and examples to inform community legal centres in their advocacy efforts for systemic change.
The report, by 2012-2013 Victoria Law Foundation CLC Fellow, Rachel Ball, is informed by over sixty interviews with community legal centres, international human rights organisations, peak bodies, academics, researchers, journalists, media managers, writers and people who have told their own stories in human rights and social justice campaigns.
