With division and polarisation on the rise across Ireland, this interactive workshop will explore how educators can use storytelling to foster empathy and build stronger, more connected communities.
Drawing on research and evidence-based approaches, the session will show how the act of sharing stories helps us make sense of the world in a way that resonates with others and brings people together.
Over the course of the day, you’ll learn:
- The power of storytelling in creating connection and understanding
- Practical tools for running your own storytelling workshops
- How to gather and curate meaningful stories
- Ethical considerations when working with personal narratives
What’s included:
- Lunch will be provided
- You’ll receive a handbook with guidance on designing and delivering a storytelling workshop in your own context
We hope you’ll join us for a day of learning, storytelling and collaboration as we come together to build more empathetic, cohesive communities.
