Youth, parents, teachers, social workers, policy makers and administrators share their experiences in pairs. By quantifying the stories, patterns become visible. By interpreting their meaning together, shared insights arise about the current situation and its possibilities for improvement.
Sprockler
The stories are collected and interpreted through Sprockler, an innovative new research instrument that provides insights into what is going on in organisations and communities through stories.
