STORYTELLING
Samuel Hall’s research and mission are defined by the voices of people and communities that are as powerful individually as they are collectively. This is why we strive to move beyond big data, algorithms, and research reports to focus on stories from the frontlines – stories that aim to challenge stereotypes and amplify narratives that have deliberately been silenced.
We do this through:
Tailored dissemination plans
Media Relations
Storytelling through blogs, reportage, and features
Social Media and newsletters
Campaigns
Events, workshops, forums, and webinars
Photography and illustrations
Information materials like factsheets, posters
Samuel Hall Stories - Humanising Research
To continue telling stories from our research, we launched Samuel Hall Stories, our multimedia blog, and solutions-focused storytelling platform that features:
First-person stories
Feature stories
Photo essays with the consent and participation of research respondents
Blogs ranging from innovative research methodologies; excerpts from our reports, and critical debates and discussions shaping our thinking
Storytelling events and workshops in collaboration with universities, museums, and civil societies
Our aim is to empower people to tell their stories and work on community-led newsletters, documentaries and digital publications. In addition, we continue working with our partners to help disseminate our research in the most creative ways possible – we have developed podcasts, organised events, co-authored blogs, and created multi-media content.

Our social media platforms go beyond promotion and are a space for us to share knowledge and voices from our research whilst connecting with people. Through simplified language and innovative formats, we discuss the contexts of the research study, challenges, solutions, and stories from our research studies. Our digital campaigns advocate a clear voice to action and aim to build a narrative and encourage collective action.
