Hi everyone,
We’ve written an article about something that you will often see tagged in the newsletter shares: ‘deep narrative’.
Over the past year, in conversation with people in this community and beyond, we’ve been exploring what ‘deep narrative’ is and how to work with it.
It’s clear that if we want a fair, liveable future on the planet, we need to shift the deep narratives we orientate our societies around. If we don’t do this work, the deep narratives of the status quo will thwart our efforts, like a powerful undertow dragging us away from our destinations of fair, liveable futures.
So what exactly are deep narratives? Why do they matter? How do they relate to the immediate issues that need addressing? What can we learn from the folk who have been trying to shift them? What are the possibilities for future deep narrative projects?
And do let us know if you have thoughts or suggestions at inter-narratives@greenfunders.org
Many thanks,
Paddy & Ella
