"Each of us brings our own perspectives, personalities, and cultural backgrounds to the stories we consume or create. The Dignified Storytelling Handbook is not intended to prescribe a “one-fit” point of view for everyone – rather it seeks to offer tips and tools to help thoughtfully and critically examine stories, particularly those told from development and humanitarian settings, and to offer suggestions to guide value-based decisions and partnerships in storytelling. Within this broader purpose, there are several ways in which you might use this Handbook as a reference tool for advocacy, for training, for policy development within your organisation, or for your own storytelling practice. For example, the overarching Dignified Storytelling Principles may be a useful reference point as you discuss values and expectations with external contractors. Or perhaps, as a content creator, you can gain inspiration from exploring the Story Spotlights found throughout the Handbook. If you are writing a Terms of Reference to hire an interpreter, see the section on Working with Interpreters or Translators. Or if you need to develop a Risk Assessment, you might consult the textbox under Principle #2 on “I do no harm”." (Page 17)
