Some reflections from the group after the experience:
- Its engaging for public to start with idea, small changes make a big difference
- It is useful to narrow down to a specific area of the topic so public can engage with something that is understandable and tangible.
- Consider the ripple on effect.….
- Hashtag, social media, petition.
- Example- badge with messages are a talking point to carry messages on.
- Think of engaging different ages. People engage with information in different ways. Short bite size info, more detailed info…where to go for more information
- Be positive/ attractive/ colourful
- For street action drawing on the ground attracts attention. People can see things on different levels.
- Recreating a space or and environment for meaningful experience. A group drew a room in a direct provision centre on the ground to people to enter and imagine. This experience of stepping into space and imagining is useful.
- Giving time for public to be creative allows them to think and engage.
- Find different access points and ways for people to engage.
- Share information in a way that is interactive.
