Narratio is a global platform for youth empowerment through creative expression, publishing content from over 18 countries across three continents.
Watch how it works!
Narratio has built a new bridge with Tarjimly, strengthening both our missions of amplifying the stories of displaced communities. With Tarjimly’s help, Narratio can now introduce beauty regardless of the language our young contributors create through.
All of Narratio’s published work and worldwide Storytelling workshops now have the support of Tarjimly’s 10,000 translators so each young person can share their story, art, and other expressions in their own voice, regardless of language.
Tarjimly has changed how Narratio can share the stories of the resilient and charismatic youth we encounter. In turn, we want to help share their story of how they’ve become a vital service for so many people around the world.

Founder Ahmed Badr discovered by sharing his story of leaving his home in Iraq, he attained the power of “dispelling stereotypes and changing negative attitudes”. Ahmed then began workshops as a way to help others find their voice and project it through creative expression. From this cornerstone, Narratio’s storytelling workshops have encountered youth, displaced or otherwise, from several countries speaking multiple languages.
Tarjimly now allows participants to be fully immersed in the workshop’s lessons, build stories in their own voice and share their creations unrestrained by language.
Narratio’s workshops are run in community centers, refugee camps, and universities
