- A Narrative of Rural Abundance: A Case Study of Land Stewardship Project’s Narrative Strategy The Land Stewardship Project (LSP) has been working to change the public conversation for three and a half decades. In 2015, LSP began working with GPP on a lengthy process to develop and implement an integrated narrative strategy that reconnects leaders and members with the implicit values and principles that inspire the organization and its constituency. This case study shares the story behind LSP’s narrative strategy: how it informs their communications and organizing, and what it has meant for both their internal cohesion and overall effectiveness. Using a grounding narrative, LSP works across political fault-lines, expanding the space and scope of what is politically possible.
