Reﬂection - Storytelling 

 Challenge & Selection 

 The ﬁrst tool I used was the tool of storytelling or story telling , to achieve or shared   understanding of a problem space among a diverse group of stakeholders before   attempting to identify and deﬁne possible solutions to the problem . I use this   approach often with vulnerable populations , senior citizens and economically   disadvantage people and in order to create awareness to people who are not   enlightened with the changes that are happening around us and to our mother   earth . Sometimes when I share my story and engage myself with someone who is   younger than me , the sense of stupid questions that they ask tend to provoke a   thought in my mind to think it in the most basic form about the complex problems   that exists and then to seniors in order understand with there experience how the   evolution has happened and how they have gone about to see the changes that   have occurred in our nature . I use these informations to increase my knowledge   and understandings about these things . 

 Application 

 I was once on a beach in Goa and I was fed up with the dirt and littering around   the beach . It was just not limited to the beach but also to the water that was   touching that beach . Everything was getting washed up in that beach and there   were no proper means for waste collection and segregation . It was a clear   indicator of peoples negligence and ignorance of the people . The lack of facilities   of waste disposables have led to this situation . The wastes generated also   included the ones that occurred due to the communal gatherings and festivals .   Challenges that will be faced in such a situations if done properly would protect   the marine life , the detriment to health caused by the unhygienic surroundings . It   would curb the increase in the water temperature which in turn triggers climate   change , to enhance the lives of the ﬁshermen ’s . To provide safety and personal   well being . These thoughts were just playing in my mind while I was sitting there   and a senior citizen was intrigued by what I was trying to observe and do and   these thoughts I spoke to him a loud and he got really touched as this was the   beach he had proposed his late wife 35 years back . It had a milestone in his love   and held a special place in his heart . 

 Insight & Approach 

 Well , as I progressed and started to know how much this meant to him and why it   touched his heart , he opened with me and started to explain how before back in   the time when so many materialistic things existed the beach would be so clean   and pure , he told me that when had planned on proposing to his wife , the beach   was untouched with human beings and there was only one shack that was there   and there was a proper system to visit the beach or to do anything . There was a   proper system through which you had to go through in order to visit or do an event   on the beach . 

 I got really touched with his emotions related to the beach and that ’s when I   started to think with about how we might just start something of cleaning thr beach   and get sponsors to aﬃliate with us and bring this initiative in everyones notice . He   then went on to tell me about his grandchildren should grow up in an environment   that is safe for them and he would love to restore it to its basic form how it used to   be and recite the story of how he met and proposed there grandmother sitting   there on the beach drinking coconut water with them . 

 This course made me see this as a tool in a new way . Presenting my ideas and   thoughts more freely and in a proper way with empathising with the person getting   aﬀected .
