Our Vision

Our Vision

A world where community voices drive engagement and change.

At Folktale, we believe the most powerful insights come from lived experience. Our platform exists to connect communities with the people making decisions that affect their lives—bridging the gap between grassroots realities and global development agendas.

Our Mission

Our Mission

To elevate community voices to drive positive change for the future.

We do this by making it easy for communities to share their stories using mobile storytelling—capturing experiences, insights, and aspirations in their own words. These stories become powerful tools for advocacy and understanding, reaching the ears of those who shape policies, fund programs, and design solutions.

When community voices are heard, decisions become more inclusive, programs become more effective, and change becomes truly sustainable.

What We Believe

What We Believe

Every voice matters.

Empathy leads to better decisions.

Stories help us see each other clearly.

Change is strongest when it’s community-led.

Insight must begin with those it affects.

Why we exist

We believe in a future where decisions that affect communities are made with them, not just for them. That’s why Folktale enables community members to speak in their own voices to create space for truth, nuance, and connection.
By amplifying local voices, we help communities advocate for what matters
