While communication technologies are
continuously developing, not all voices are
being heard.
Explicit efforts to ensure that all communities
have a voice on the global stage are essential
to creating thriving and resilient communities.
While these initiatives have softer results than
many other efforts, in an age where
information is power, communities that feel
unheard or misrepresented will become
increasingly frustrated and confrontational.

Players suggested a host of ways to amplify storytelling efforts, like
extending the StoryCorps model to marginalized communities around world.
Others thought that adding foresight methodologies could add a layer of
community organizing and strategic thinking to the power of storytelling as well.
Some players suggested pragmatic approaches—providing tools to record and
share stories, designing storytelling projects that span multiple media platforms for
increased reach and access, and building platforms to map ideas and make
storytelling fruitful. Others also suggested using storytelling techniques as a
cautionary tale to prevent crime.

StoryCorps aims “to provide Americans of all backgrounds and beliefs with the opportunity to record, share, and preserve the stories of our lives.”
Villages in Action
Villages in Action was founded by Ugandan activist TMS Ruge in 2010. Frustrated at how the millennium development goals, while focused entirely on poor and vulnerable communities, seemed to be leaving them entirely out of the conversation, he decided to bring the microphone directly to the people.
