Understand goals, audience & context
Turn complex research into clear, credible stories for the audiences who need to understand, use, fund, share or act on it. We connect evidence, narrative, visual communication, channel strategy and impact measurement in one coherent research communication journey.
We begin with the evidence and intended audience, then move from insight to message, creative production, distribution and evaluation so every output has a clear communication purpose.

A Research Storytelling Service turns research findings, evidence and insights into clear narratives, visuals and communication assets that help different audiences understand why the work matters and what it means.
Academic writing and editing focus primarily on the scholarly document itself. Research storytelling focuses on translating the meaning, evidence and impact of research into audience-friendly stories and formats for communication, engagement and dissemination.
Source material can include manuscripts, reports, datasets, presentations, project summaries, grant outputs, interview notes, impact evidence, charts, publications and other approved research materials that provide the facts and context for the story.
Yes. The service is designed to preserve the research logic while simplifying language, explaining context and presenting the key message in a form suited to audiences such as funders, policymakers, media, partners or the public.
Yes. Plain-language briefs and research summaries are included among the deliverables shown for this service and can be shaped around a defined audience, purpose and communication channel.
Yes. Visual communication and design are part of the service scope shown here, including infographics, data visualizations, posters, reports and presentation assets where appropriate.

Yes. Grants and funding are listed as a use case, with storytelling used to strengthen how research value, outcomes and measurable impact are communicated to relevant decision-makers and funders.
The workflow begins with research and evidence, then develops messages and creative assets around those source materials. Review points should be used to confirm that simplification, narrative emphasis and visuals remain faithful to the underlying research.
Helpful inputs include the research or source materials, project goals, target audiences, key messages or findings, intended channels, required formats, relevant deadlines and any brand, funder, institutional or publication requirements.
The service framework includes impact measurement and reporting. Evaluation can focus on agreed indicators such as reach, engagement, interactions, awareness, understanding, adoption or other outcomes relevant to the communication objective.
Share the research context, intended audiences, communication goals, preferred formats and important deadlines so the storytelling scope can be shaped around the evidence and the people you need to reach.
Identify the manuscript, report, dataset, project summary, publication or other approved material that should anchor the story.
Tell us who needs to understand the research and what the communication should help them know, feel, decide or do.
