Building Narrative Power

Using data-driven research to engage people

Who we are

Comms Hub builds the narrative power of civil society through research, ideation and CSO-led action to engage people. We produce actionable insights that translate research into practical communication strategies. We are based in Europe and work across topics and geographies.

Collaboration and ideation are at the core of our work. We partner with civil society organizations and communities to strengthen their narrative power and expand their reach.

As a network of organizations, Comms Hub delivers advanced digital research, opinion analysis, campaign support and grantmaking. Our mission is to empower civil society in their communication efforts to strengthen democracy and human rights.

Our vision

We envision a world where everyone can actively participate in constructive public dialogue, fostering diverse perspectives and free, equitable, and democratic societies.

Our RIA impact framework

Research-Ideation-Action drives sustainable narrative change. We also regrant to support CSOs’ evidence-based campaigns.

Research

Comms Hub’s research encompasses digital research and public opinion research.

Our digital research tracks and analyses online narratives to understand how democracy is being shaped—and challenged.

Our public opinion research utilizes polling, focus groups and other methods to understand the attitudes underlying public sentiment. From this we can understand segments within broader populations.

The ideation phase transforms our research insights into strategic action through briefing sessions with civil society. Our briefings unpack our digital and public opinion research, such as platform-specific trends, emerging narratives, and strategic opportunities for democratic discourse.

Through focused workshops, we enhance civil society’s ability to apply research to data-driven strategic communications.

CSO-led Action

Comms Hub supports civil society organizations (CSOs) in designing and implementing civic engagement campaigns—either individually or in collaboration with other CSOs. Our Action phase includes, setting clear campaign objectives, building a tailored monitoring, evaluation, and learning (MEL) framework. We guide CSOs through iterative implementation and post-campaign evaluation to ensure continuous learning and impact.

Grantmaking

Our grantmaking supports civil society organizations that are dedicated to engaging people in democratic discourse. We can serve as a re-granting organization for dedicated programs for larger donors. If you would be interested in working with us as your re-granting organization, please reach out to christal.morehouse@comms-hub.org.
