Illuminating Voices

Promoting dialogue, debate and change

How we work

We use a number of approaches across a wide range of issues, working with journalists, communities and policymakers


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 testimony

Oral testimonies are vivid, personal accounts that draw on a person's direct memories and experiences.

Approaches

Media development

The people most affected by development are often poorly informed about the issues central to their lives.
