Pillar 4

The problem and our response

Status: Planned

Survivor experiences are often told about survivors, not by them — sometimes in ways that risk re-traumatisation or loss of dignity.

We support ethical, consent-based survivor storytelling and produce survivor-led media and knowledge products for dialogue and advocacy.

Example activities

  • Story circles
  • Ethical storytelling and consent training
  • Production of survivor-led media and briefs

Expected outputs

Survivor-led media and knowledge products produced, storytelling guidance applied.

Intended outcomes

Survivor voice amplified ethically; informed public and policy dialogue.

Measurement indicators

  • Products produced and their reach
  • Consent and ethics compliance
