"Workshop setting which allows participants to explore different analytical frameworks and refine their problem perception."[1]

Do you se the glass half empty, or half full? Reframing is the art of turning problems into possibilities.

Workshop setting

3 groups of students representing:

  • Environmental capital
  • Ecological capital
  • Social capital

Each group should: identify resources, processes, products or benefits, mutual interrelations of or within each of the concepts - relevant for our case.

Which development goals are associated with them? Are there 3 (in principle) different development scenarios? Or do they empower each other?

Issue (brown coal mining) from diverse perspectives (envi, eco, social)

  • Which of the perspectives contradict to the other(s)?
  • Are there any stakeholders that perceive situation mainly from one of these viewpoints?
  • Pay attention to social capital – how is it related to the other two?
  • Sustainable development strategies should include all 3 dimensions – how is it possible to outline links between them? Is there any integrative perspective?

Analysis of mind maps and cases by individual stakeholders

3 perspectives to be indentified within case studies, mind maps, development scenarios ...:

  1. Reveal “hidden paradigms” under stakeholder perceptions: envi, eco social capital.
  2. Where the conflict in these assumptions causes the conflict in real activities and future perspectives?
  3. Analyse 3 development scenarios (social = integrative?, economic = socially destructive?) - how are affected by the “hidden paradigms”?
