GORM's Vision and Impact:

At GORM, we are driven by a powerful vision – to spark a movement of unity and shared understanding. Our three pillars, Elevate Voices, Enable Communities, and Equipping Leaders, guide us in creating a positive impact through digital storytelling.

Elevating Voices:

GORM is not just a digital media platform; it's a community-driven initiative. We collaborate with diverse communities to tell their stories digitally, fostering understanding and connection. As one of Ireland's few migrant-led media agencies, we take pride in our unique perspective and the meaningful content we create.

Enabling Communities:

Our commitment to enabling communities is evident through initiatives like the Wideshot Programme. By empowering young individuals from ethnically diverse backgrounds to share their narratives, we are bridging gaps and providing access to the media industry. Sponsorship and grant funding support these community-driven endeavors.

Equipping Leaders:

GORM goes beyond content creation by offering intercultural training programs. These programs equip leaders with the skills needed to engage effectively across differences, promoting positive change both in industries and societies.

In Mamobo's heartfelt statement, she said:

“Never in a million years did I think this was going to be my life… I am the result of so many poweful women (and men) and as a first time start-up founder, I don’t know where I would be without their continuous endorsement, mentorship, sponsorship and support in the impact we are making at GORM”
