What?

The What level helps to clarify what is the topic of concern. Understanding WHAT? we are doing provides a foundation for assessing the value and relevance of our activities. 

Individual level

At the individual level, WHAT? understands the personal interests, values, experiences, and skills of the participants, and how these may shape the activities content and approach. 

1. What will the individuals learn and experience in the activity? 
2. What skills or knowledge is been shared and gained?  

Community level

At the community level, WHAT? shifts to focus on the shared activities and processes that contribute to collective goals. It also explores the practical aspects of collaboration and resource sharing within the community. 

1. What are some of the communities’ shared challenges and what actions are being take? 
2. What resources are available with the community to support the activity? 
3. What processes can we implement to ensure effective collaboration? 

Societal Level

At the broader societal level, the WHAT? explores the larger context of the activity and its impact on society. This level of questioning helps to assess the relevance and scalability of the actions taken. 

1. What societal issues does the activity address? 
2. What are the broader systemic barriers that need to be addressed to support the initiative? 
3. What policies, practices or changes are needed to amplify the effects of the activity?
