The convening used participatory methods to identify topics for small group conversations related to the theme and was expertly facilitated by Allen Gunn from Aspiration.

Real time analysis is not useful because it is drive-by analysis. Using unstructured qualitative data alone is pretty stupid unless you bring intelligence analysis, link to a quantitative analysis, and link it back to decisions. Do only numbers matter?

So then we’ll talk about what are some participatory planning methods. Sometimes, you have too many ideas so you need a strong facilitator who can make sure we hear from everyone, but are able to put these ideas through a funnel and find those common threads.

I’ve been following it for a while now and it is very inspiring on many different levels. The laboratory gives Greenpeace and its partners a space to design, test, iterative, and roll out new strategies and techniques for participatory campaigns or what has been called “People Powered.” What do you think?

Grants management systems must facilitate better data sharing, providing all funders and grantees a comprehensive, common dataset for research, analysis, learning, and evaluation. Changing the model from one-to-one to one-to-many could result in foundations collaborating to fund a project (talk about changing the power dynamic!).
