Spatial stories are a powerful medium for communicating the need for change—or the desire to resist it. StoryMaps have increasingly been used by professionals and engaged citizens to weave together maps, 3D scenes, and other digital, interactive media to create awareness, influence opinion, and affect change. Building on the Thursday breakout session, Speculative Futures and Situated Design: New Pathways for Public Engagement in Transit-Oriented Development, this session walks participants through the design and development of their own StoryMap meant to communicate an imagined future for a community they know well. The training will touch on data ethics and provide tools for bringing a compelling spatial narrative to life. Instructional resources are transferable to other use cases and double as a means to empower community members to communicate their own desired futures. Note: while participants are not required to attend the Thursday breakout session, they must bring their own laptop.
