This publication highlights the experience and lessons learned from a Community Digital Storytelling activity by CARE International through its Integrated Community-based Adaptation in the Mekong (ICAM) Project, funded by the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade. It explores ways Community Digital Storytelling can be used to strengthen people’s capacity and resolve as equal participants in decision-making spaces.

Community Digital Storytelling (CDST) is a participatory development process where community members develop and share photo-video stories as a means to raise awareness, stimulate dialog and influence policy.
