Instructions

  • Participants are invited to form a regular circle, keeping the same distance from the centre and their colleagues, looking into each other’s eyes. The physical space must be organised to create an atmosphere in which power is equally shared to encourage dialogue. It is best to have a bright and comfortable atmosphere, preferably in connection with nature. (10 min)
  • Ask the group the question ‘What are your desires?’ without any theoretical basis for this method having been presented. All participants are free to answer by asking for the floor when they want to speak (e.g., with a gesture). It is important that participants express themselves, listen carefully to the voices of others and respect moments of silence, which are useful for reflection and concentration. In this way, an open and democratic dialogue can be promoted, without constraints, impositions, or dogmas(40 min)
  • Write down the participants’ desires as they emerge, either on a flipchart, on post-its, or on a blackboard, so that they can have them in visual form for the next phase (10 min)
  • Check if all participants had a chance to express themselves. With the group, try to identify some common points in the desires collected and, by doing so, initiate a reflection round. The aim of this phase is to reformulate the desires in a way that enables the participants to better understand them (10 min) NB You can intervene to harmonise the dialogue, but without expressing your personal opinion on the subject
  • The activity is closed by summarising what emerged, even if no conclusion was reached. These points can be highlighted as potential avenues for future reflection
