WELCOME TO STARDUST IMPACT
Where stories become learning
We believe culture — how we think, act and relate to each other — changes through learning. Through impact storytelling, we turn lived experience and knowledge into learning that helps people connect and act.
About
Stardust Impact is an educational non-governmental organisation.
Societal challenges are interconnected. To understand and respond to them, we bring together lived experience, insight and cultural perspectives, so people can see why something matters and calls for out attention.
That is why impact storytelling is at the heart of our work. We turn lived experience and knowledge into learning that helps people connect and act. Yet these perspectives are often kept apart from the fields where society’s most important questions are addressed, from science and technology to social and environmental matters.
Stardust brings together innovators, creatives, educators, researchers, entrepreneurs and decision-makers. Through films, courses, conversations and interdisciplinary projects, we create new ways of learning and working across fields. Whatever the format, the aim remains the same - to bring forward new ideas and new ways of addressing the issues that matter to all of us.

Filmed formats that bring cultural perspectives into how we understand and engage with complex societal matters. We connect different forms of knowledge and experience, and develop new ways of bringing them into conversation.

Public Engagement
Through our Lab, we bring forward and pilot new ways of integrating cultural perspectives and practices into research, technology, societal matters and other fields, using different media and creative thinking.
