Storytelling, in its digital form, is increasingly entering the activities of civil society organizations, as it achieves a more influential, emotional, authentic and credible presentation of messages, values, ideas. Storytelling has the power to generate empathy, to bind and attract, to give a "face" to causes, the context of problems, to "assemble" the causal links of events. That is why storytelling has become a new communication formula, the application of which requires knowledge and skills. Clarifying the functions and elements of digital storytelling, providing tools and guidelines for their use, will turn storytelling into a strong and successful practice in social communication.
