Participatory Methods
|
Participatory methods are at the core of my approach, fostering an inclusive environment where every voice is valued. These methods actively engage participants in the cultural change process, ensuring that solutions are grounded in the lived experiences and insights of those directly involved. By involving participants in every step, from assessment to action planning, I cultivate a sense of ownership and commitment that drives meaningful and lasting change.
