Through Bicara Berdaya, WeSpeakUp.org offers a variety of activities designed to inspire, educate, and empower through storytelling. Here are the main activities we organize:
Storytelling Workshop
Change agents will learn to tell their stories in an authentic and meaningful way. Guided by experts in public speaking and storytelling, change agents will:
- Learn the fundamentals of effective storytelling.
- Practice public speaking skills.
- Package their personal experiences and connect them to the movement’s narrative to create an inspiring story.
This workshop is open to change agents who champion social issues in their communities and wish to deepen their skills in public speaking and storytelling.
