Stories to tell, stories to hear
Our video explores, and explains, the process of oral testimony, and why it's an essential aspect of poverty reduction. Oral testimony addresses a key aspect of poverty, the lack of voice, and it gives people an opportunity to share their knowledge and experience in their own words. Watch the video
Approaches
Oral testimonies are vivid, personal accounts that draw on a person's direct memories and experiences.
Approaches
The people most affected by development are often poorly informed about the issues central to their lives.
