Pro-Democracy Narrative Cohorts

A core tenet of the Pro-Democracy Narrative Playbook is that democracy is not one issue among many. It is the operating system nearly all social causes rely to drive change, defend hard won freedoms and best advance their work.

The Pro-Democracy Narrative Playbook supports cohorts working on a variety of issues to apply and customize the pro-democracy narrative to meet their specific goals while increasing understanding and support of democratic principles. Cohorts are made up of experts, leaders, volunteers, and practitioners in a variety of issue areas. The Playbook supports national issue-specific cohorts and are launching and seeking funding to stand up regional/multi-issue cohorts, with the first one being in Oregon and Southwest Washington.
