EXPERIENCE A DESTINATION AS A CITIZEN STORYTELLER
The Storytelling Expedition is a multi-day documentary tour + workshop for storytellers who want to travel with purpose. On each of our trips, a small group of photographers and filmmakers become a crew of citizen storytellers. Together, we document the work and wisdom of local changemakers, using our storytelling and mediamaking skills in service.
In return, we volunteer our talents as storytellers by documenting the work and wisdom we encounter. We have the opportunity to amplify and elevate everyday heroes who are typically only seen through a lens of poverty. This is a chance to really tell stories that matter.
Each trip is led by an Actuality producer who will provide mentorship, guidance and training as needed. Traveling in the company of other adventurous creatives, you learn best practices for collaborative and ethical story sharing.
Travelers can contribute with any kind of media-making experience. Every day offers a new opportunity to explore, learn and document stories. Through getting to know the changemakers , you can deep dive into important ideas like →
• restorative justice
• indigenous design
• environment & ecology
• rewilding
• social enterprise
• climate resilience
• peacebuilding

WHAT IS A CITIZEN STORYTELLER?
As a citizen storyteller, you have the power to tell stories that fuel connection. You can provide hope, dismantle prejudices, heal wounds, share solutions, and reveal the good in our world. Now, what will you use your power for?
This is NOT tourism-as-usual.
Actuality Abroad exists for storytellers who want to develop a deeper connection with the places they visit and the people they meet. If sightseeing and bucket-lists are still your jam – these trips won’t meet those needs. If you are looking for insight and experiences far beyond what any guide book has to offer…we designed this for you.
