Welcome to The Lexicon Community
Every challenge seeks a solution. That journey is a story.
Hello!
Welcome to the online community of The Lexicon.
The Lexicon is a US-based NGO that uses evidence-based storytelling, strategy, and mobilization to build movements that help people pay closer attention to how they eat, what they buy, and where their responsibility begins for creating a healthier, safer food system.
We use evidence-based storytelling to help people pay closer attention to how they eat, what they buy, and where their responsibility begins for creating a healthier, safer food system.
Stories can inspire.
Words are the building blocks for new ideas. Increasing our literacy and fluency can help us embrace and share new concepts, shift our perspectives, and change the way we think.
It’s a process, one that can help everyone pay closer attention to how they eat, what they buy, and where their responsibility begins for creating a healthier, safer food system.
Stories can mobilize.
The Lexicon treats challenges as stories. The beginning is the problem, the middle is the series of actions taken to confront the problem, and the end is the solution.
Every story has a cast of characters, each with a clearly defined purpose. The Lexicon “casts” domain experts from across the value chain as the principle characters in this story, one where innovative thinking and problem-solving are required to find a solution.
Stories can activate.
The power of stories can turn a solitary journey into a shared experience, a shared perspective, and a shared vision of the world we all want to see.
The Lexicon uses story-based design thinking to help organizations and companies see themselves as protagonists in a narrative that begins with a problem and ends with a solution they’ve helped create.
