Citizens everywhere have the right to be well-informed. Yet, with the highcomplexity of many contemporary issues, such as global warming and migration,our means of information need to mutually adapt. Narrative has always been atthe core of information exchange - regardless of whether our ancestors sataround a fire and exchanged stories, or whether we read an article in anewspaper, or watched a TV news broadcast. Yet, the narrative formats of thenewspaper article, the news broadcast, the documentary, and the textbook areseverely limited when it comes to representing highly complex topics which mayinclude several competing - and sometimes equally valid - perspectives. Suchcomplexity contributes to a high level of uncertainty due to a multitude offactors affecting an outcome. Fortunately, with Interactive Digital Narrative(IDN), there is a novel media format which can address these challenges. IDNscan present several different perspectives in the same work, and give audiencesthe ability to explore them at will through decision-making. After experiencingthe consequences of their decisions, the audience can replay to revisit andchange these decisions in order to consider their alternatives. IDN worksenable deep personalization and the inclusion of live data. These capabilitiesmake IDN a 21st century democratic medium, empowering citizens through theunderstanding of complex issues. In this white paper, we discuss the challengeof representing complexity, describe the advantages offered by IDNs, and pointout opportunities and strategies for deployment.
