Dawning

DAWNING is an organization devoted to multimedia storytelling projects rooted in rigorous social science research and specialized in difficult-to-access communities across Africa, Asia, and Latin America. Our mission is to pursue the truth about social and environmental challenges in forgotten corners of the globe, to collaboratively understand them alongside those living them, and to explain them to the world in innovative narratives in which the protagonists feel dignified and comfortable. We envision a world where their voices influence policy and shape public dialogue on the global stage. We are a non-partisan, non-ideological organization committed to artfully sharing data-driven evidence about pressing issues in a way that puts people first. We are committed to work ethically and collaboratively, listen to one another and the people we encounter. We hold ourselves accountable to each other, our partners and clients, the people who inhabit our narratives, and the public.
