N4 Civic Engagement: Storytelling for Change
“If you had asked me what was possible in this world a year ago, I probably would have been like, ‘Well, nothing’s possible because this world is in shambles.’ Since I’ve been introduced to Narrative 4, there’s literally nothing I can think of right now that I think is impossible.” Lauren, high school student
“Right now not only as a nation, but as humans, we are divided. Whether it be the color of our skin or the things we believe in, it seems that everyone has a problem with something. But I believe, as people, we’re so much more than that. If we would just sit down with someone we have differences with and learn more about each other through the process of storytelling, the world would be a better place, one story at a time.”Ethan, high school student
We want to tap into that positive energy by giving them time to explore possible action. How can their stories lead them to an expanded sense of self? In N4 Civic Engagement: Storytelling for Positive Change, students choose how to bring the questions and understandings from their stories into civic engagement that reflects their interests and concerns.
