Digital Storytelling Facilitation Training
For Health and Wellness Changemakers
Learn how to help others create compelling short-films (Digital Stories) that enhance their resilience and advance your mission.
Digital Storytelling is a methodology where participants use personal images and videos, voiceover narration, music, and various video editing techniques to bring the meaningful moments of their life to the screen.
Facilitating Digital Storytelling experiences in a health and wellness setting requires a robust ethical framework along with strong creative writing abilities, technical skill, and group facilitation expertise.
Common Language runs Digital Storytelling Facilitator Training workshops around the world as well as producing films and academic research papers exploring Digital Storytelling in health and wellness settings.

More Meaningful.
More Cost Effective.
More Compelling.
The ability to share a compelling story that can influence beliefs, attitudes, and values is the difference between the success and failure of every health- and wellness-focused project or organization. In the Digital Age, video-based storytelling is essential however, video production is expensive and very difficult to do well as the most compelling stories of our lives rarely occur in front of a camera crew. Digital Storytelling is a solution to all these problems.
