It's important to make sure we don't assume that what benefits the organization or its community necessarily benefits the survivors and their communities. View my full report at modernslaverypec.org/resources/to.... #SurvivorLeadership #MeaningfulEngagement #LivedExperience
“Just over half of the [ethical storytelling] models discussed how stories should be used to benefit the impacted communities. However, all but two were either unclear about who the community was or focused on the organisation’s self-defined community rather than the impacted person’s communities, which may not be the same.” -Whose story, whose benefit? Returning (to) the power of authentic narrative

Invest in and then value survivors for their professional development skills, rather than only seeing them as a story to share, which can cause harm as it makes them to engage with their trauma over and over. #SurvivorLeadership #MeaningfulEngagement
1) Invest in survivor leadership, professional development, and skills beyond just storytelling or case management roles. Recommendation 6. Continually invest in survivors along the continuum from initiation of support to the highest levels of leadership 2) "We cannot create effective anti-trafficking policies and programming without meaningful input from people with lived experience, and we cannot get relevant, quality recommendations without investing in survivors at the earlier levels of survivor engagement." Also, investing in survivors at all stages reduces lateral violence by decreasing economic competition that pits survivors against each other out of desperation.

Last month in Paris, survivors led a global push to end the sex trade at a convening organized by CAP International. Partners—from Maiti Nepal to Emargi—shared urgent realities & resistance. Stand with them. #EndSexTrafficking#SurvivorLeadership #AbolitionMovement

5) In peer healing spaces, you might initially go into fewer intensely vulnerable details or move more slowly through the content to allow trust to be built. 6) Organizers of larger events or media engagements may consider what might help create a container of trust in that context. 7) While this takes an investment of time and resources, prioritizing trust-building enables survivors to voice their concerns and say “no” more confidently to engagements that are potentially harmful to the storyteller. - Whose story, whose benefit?

4) “Use of warning tales for education is focused instead on helping people learn to ’anticipate reactions from the larger community through the lens of those stories.’” -“Whose story, whose benefit? Returning (to) the power of authentic narrative” 5) “Cautionary tales often perpetuate and are driven by paternalism and saviorism, leading to the development of ineffective and harmful programming and prevention policy that rely on stereotypes and ’rescue’.” -“Whose story, whose benefit?
