For some the goals are abstract and for others they are a source of optimism. What is cha...

It provides insights into individual possibilities and taps into day-to-day experiences to formulate action-driven products addressing expressed needs.   By beneficiary-centered the tool can be used to elicit demands or needs from beneficiaries and use these to characterize lived experience situations which become iterative cues.   By problem...
