In a world shaped by loud voices, corporate power and fake news, how do we centre real stories and use them to drive social change?
About this Event

In a world of misinformation and growing political division, how can grassroots stories of hope and social action cut through the noise? More people than ever have the tools to share stories but who is truly heard, and how creative are we being with the tools we’re using?

Join us for an evening exploring powerful, community-led storytelling. Hear from artists, filmmakers, and activists who amplify diverse voices through creative and ethical uses of technology.

Free and open to all.
