How to use this guide

This guide is designed to be used by anyone - even if you have limited experience of facilitating group discussions. It takes you step-by-step through the process, from planning and set-up, to what to say at each stage of the visioning exercise. It is a good idea to have a small group to prepare and run the event - see more on roles below. . 

The visioning exercise is broken down into three sessions.  In person, you could do this all in one day. If you are doing it online, a full day is not recommended - instead you could schedule three separate sessions to work through the exercise.

Here are our suggested timings, including short breaks: 

1: Introduction and What Is? - 1 hour 45 minutes

2. What If? - 3 hours (add 30 minutes if you do the optional exercise)

3. What Next? and closing - 2 hours 15 minutes

The process can be run online or in person. There are pros and cons to each. 

Online

In Person 

Whichever you choose, the following pages will help you plan and set up your event to try to overcome some of the challenges and so participants feel as comfortable as possible, and fully able to take part.
