Keynotes and Workshops
Our understanding of cities is built on storytelling…
Our journey from local advocacy to global voices for urban vitality has been one of the most rewarding experiences. It has taken us to so many places around the world, and meeting incredible people who like us, just want to have a positive impact on the future of their cities.
Part of our journey has included invitations to share our knowledge and experience with rooms of fellow advocates, professionals, and passionate citizens. Making this happen starts with one simple step: Just ask!

Narrative Building Workshops and Trainings
To create projects that have a positive impact often starts with telling the best story. However in many places, this can be overlooked or undervalued, leaving a vacuum in the narrative that makes space for misinfomration and misunderstanding. The best way to start on a strong footing is by defining the core narrative that will guide the project from inception to implementation. But how do you do this successfully?
In our narrative building workshops, local advocates, professionals, and leaders are invited to examine WHO it is we are trying to reach, define WHY this project will have a positive impact on the daily lives, and identify HOW to best communicate these messages with all stakeholders and the general public. Using international examples of both successful projects and communications campaigns, and giving participants space to discuss ongoing challenges such as “bike”-lash, outreach, building buy-in, this workshop gives them the tools to think differently about a more integrated approach that uses a strong narrative to guide the entire project process.
Workshops can be catered to a half or full day programme, or integrated with a larger 2-3 day programme with other local or international experts.
