Example Reflection – Storytelling 

 Challenge & Selection 

 Storytelling is a great tool that I use all the time . I work with vulnerable people , youth who   are infected with HIV & AIDS ( chronic disease ) . It is sad to see such young citizen loosing   hope about their life time / future .   They need to be encouraged and inspired as some of   them they find it hard to accept their situation/ statuses , which makes them to hide their   emotions . I share some stories that are related to their situation in order to help them to   open up about their situation . 

 Most are often lonely and emotional I show sympathy and care . I have already tried using   other different kinds of design thinking tools but storytelling is the best tool . 

 Application 

 I have a story about storytelling ; I explained to them that being affected does not mean it ’s   the end of the world . Tried telling them that many people live with the HIV and I   encouraging them that all they need is to take their Medication / ARVs , eat healthy and   exercise also protecting them . They looked happy and inspired ; they showed interest by   asking more questions about how they should deal with this disease . 

 However two young girls did n’t show any interest , they looked sad . I realised that I need to   get through to them and find out what is going on . I invited them to play skipping rope with   me , after we sat down and talked . They lost their mother from this disease so there was no   hope for them . 

 Insight & Approach 

 After listening to their story it was my time to share mine , I told them about my aunt who   also died from this disease and how scared her kids and family was after finding out . And   they had to go and test , only one of them was infected and I showed them her picture how   well and happy she looked . I told them that she is taking her medication and it ’s been five   years already living with it now . They smiled , meaning the story worked well all they needed   was attention and encouragement . 

 I was happy to see them smile , being hopeful and gave them a hug , I told them everything is   going to be alright .   I can now prepare and think about some stories to help others out .
