About this Event
Storytelling for Social Impact Workshop
Storytelling has connected humans for centuries, influencing actions, behaviours, and causes. Today, it’s everywhere—from social media to political campaigns and films. But how can we harness the power of storytelling for positive change and collective action?
In this creativity-sparking workshop, participants will learn hands-on storytelling skills and how to apply them for good. Through rapid-fire exercises, group work, and interactive games, you'll not only learn the key elements of a great story but feel them in action. This workshop is all about being interactive and fun and takes place in the heart of Berlin's social impact scene - Impact Hub Berlin.
Disclaimer: you do not have to have any "storytelling experience" as it is a completely open format for beginners and those looking to expand their skills.
