RESEARCH-DRIVEN

NARRATIVE CHANGE

We help mission-driven organizations, and the funders and investors behind them, understand and shift the narratives shaping the issues they work on.

from stories to systems

Every narrative has a structure. We map it and help it move.

what

we do

Research & Analysis

We identify the patterns shaping your issue area: what drives them, how they move, and where the openings are. We start with the people closest to the issue, then build out with media, historical, and field research.

Strategy & Narrative Design

We design narrative strategies and campaigns from what the patterns reveal, whether translating findings for new audiences or creating collective storytelling, digital, and place-based projects.

Frameworks & Reports

We publish frameworks, toolkits, and messaging guides so patterns and insights travel beyond a single project, including approaches for measuring narrative and behavior change across the impact field.

How We Work //

Narratives are patterns of stories that carry and shape meaning.

They hold how we understand the past, how we make sense of the present, and what we believe is possible. Our approach is multidisciplinary by design. We ground our work in real experiences and collaborate with researchers, data scientists, designers, creatives, and people living the issues to recognize the patterns at work and design ways to shift them.
