Why do some briefs stir empathy but stall at action? 

CWC invites you to “Policy aur Story ki Prem Kahani” with Vrinda Chopra (Senior Writing Fellow) to trace how storytelling shapes briefs, where the “prem kahani” snaps, and which communication travels across scales. By the end of the workshop, you will be able to: 

• pause and reflect on the aesthetic value of story-telling within policy briefs, and 
• identify communication strategies deployed for effective policy briefs at different scales of practice.
