Obstacles and Promising Techniques in Storytelling for Transparency and Accountability

Obstacles and Promising Techniques in Storytelling for Transparency and Accountability

The Transparency and Accountability Initiative’s (TAI’s) story behind the story report aims to help donors and practitioners in the transparency, accountability, and participation community to make use of stories to advocate their civic mission, to document and promote their work, and to examine their own impact.

The report can be found here.

All of TAI members’ donors struggle to convey impact and how impact relates to activities and inputs.

Compelling stories are a prized tool, but compelling results can be slow to surface and murky in their evidentiary value.

If organisations collected more vivid and accessible stories, they could better harness the imaginations of decision-makers, the public, advocates, partners, and grant makers.
