Description
"When technological, economic or social changes are transforming society, but effective mechanism to shape these transformations are missing, crises can occur. Transformative Change Making (TCM) introduces a new method to create the societal buy-in needed to tackle such transformation crises.
- TCM uses a set of techniques to break social silos, makes use of
the knowledge disseminated through society, and visualises the challenges in the political field. TCM strengthens the ability of policy makers to reach out to constituencies, encourages private sector contribution to the common good, builds the strategic capacity of civil society and political literacy of all stakeholders.
- Making use of discourse steering as an instrument, TCM proposes
an alternative vision for a better tomorrow, constructs a credible change narrative and aims at creating success stories around catalytic projects.
- TCM has been successfully used to facilitate reform processes in
India, Pakistan, and Thailand. As a work in progress, it will be further adapted to match the local context. This beta version of the practical guide is meant to give practitioners an easy to use introduction into the method." (http://library.fes.de/pdf-files/bueros/indien/13269.pdf)
