Liberatory Fun with Journey Mapping: The Journey Scroll
The Journey Scroll began as a custom collaborative participatory retrospective evaluation technique of documenting the history of a process, movement or program based on stakeholder recollection. The process involves engaging stakeholders in creating an interactive timeline with qualities of activities categorized based on modified characteristics inspired by the classic game “Chutes and Ladders.” Participants will learn by doing and receive tips on how to adapt the method to different situations, including prospective evaluation, planning and organizational development, co-dreaming/visioning and harvesting impact. They will also be invited to contribute their own insights on method use. Some participants may be able to get coaching on implementing the tool in their evaluation practice or community and share lessons with the course participants.
Thanks to Anne Price for inviting me to chat about community building with her!
