Dinovate Launches Center for Media and Social Impact, Aiming to Transform Narratives and Empower Communities

Dinovate, a renowned creative media and communications company, has unveiled the Dinovate Centre for Media and Social Impact (DCMSI), a non-profit organization dedicated to uncovering untold stories, producing research-backed media, and fostering community-led change through impactful storytelling. This initiative signifies a significant step in Dinovate’s mission to leverage media as a catalyst for systemic transformation. In an era where inclusive narratives, authentic representation, and evidence-based advocacy are paramount, DCMSI will function as a platform for changemakers, creatives, and researchers working at the nexus of media, development, and public policy.

The Centre, spearheaded by Dinovate Founder and Chief Executive Temidayo Ibitoye, is designed to move beyond project-based work and establish a sustainable framework for social impact. Ibitoye emphasized the importance of shifting narratives, equipping communities, and influencing systems through the power of story. DCMSI aims to amplify voices that matter, supporting them with research, training, and concrete action. This approach recognizes the transformative potential of storytelling to not only shed light on critical issues but also inspire and empower communities to drive positive change.

Operating as a dynamic ecosystem, DCMSI will champion inclusive storytelling and advocacy campaigns that uplift marginalized communities and highlight grassroots solutions. It will serve as a training ground for future media changemakers through fellowships, hands-on training, and practical experiences under the Dinovate Academy umbrella. The Centre’s commitment to participatory research and engagement with policymakers will bridge the gap between data, human narratives, and policy decisions, ensuring that lived experiences inform policy formulation and implementation.

Collaboration is central to DCMSI’s strategy. The Centre will work closely with development partners, non-governmental organizations, and social movements to create media tools that facilitate impact in areas such as climate adaptation, disability inclusion, education, and governance. These partnerships will ensure that DCMSI’s work is informed by diverse perspectives and grounded in the realities of the communities it serves. By working collaboratively, DCMSI can maximize its impact and contribute to a more equitable and sustainable future.

DCMSI’s initial projects include participatory photography initiatives in crisis-affected regions, storytelling campaigns addressing statelessness in Africa, and digital storytelling labs for young people in remote and underserved communities. These projects reflect the Centre’s commitment to addressing pressing social issues and empowering marginalized communities to share their stories and advocate for change. By providing platforms and resources for these voices to be heard, DCMSI aims to challenge dominant narratives and promote greater understanding and empathy.

Building on Dinovate’s extensive experience in leading media interventions with global institutions, DCMSI is poised to become a central hub for impact-driven media innovation. It will provide technical support, co-create strategic campaigns, and conduct field research that prioritizes the lived experiences of often-overlooked communities. This emphasis on centering community voices and experiences reflects a fundamental shift in how stories are told and who gets to tell them. DCMSI envisions a future where storytelling serves as a powerful tool for equity and social justice, going beyond mere entertainment to inspire action and drive meaningful change. Ibitoye’s vision emphasizes the role of storytelling not as charity, but as essential infrastructure for building a more just and equitable world – one where narratives empower, connect, and inspire positive transformation.
