I see it as voices in the wilderness - because those who we most need to listen to, yet are often ignored, have opportunities for empowerment - to make choices and to be heard (hopefully) by privileged groups through the stories of those rendered invisible in society. The voice in the societal wilderness is the participants power to choose their course.
Thanks for asking for metaphors
