 ==== System Change Experiment ====
+(an [[experiment]] from the [[workshop_201503|March workshop]])
+===Challenge/Hypothesis===
+What traction could we gain as a group if we focus on a single problem? Can we find a common issue to bring our respective resources to? How do we identify a tipping point?\\
+Notes: https://www.flickr.com/photos/foam/16644580810/, [[https://www.flickr.com/photos/foam/16644580810/|larger image]] and [[https://www.flickr.com/photos/foam/16209609574/in/photostream/|another image (with post-its)]]
+===Experiment design===
+A pre-experiment investigation to understand what existing approaches have worked, what success factors, tools and motivations are around to create system change.
+If system innovation is a set of interventions that come together:
+  * is it then possible to co-ordinate a set of disparate interventions (with different theories of change) to deliberately shift a system into a more sustainable state? when are these co-ordinated actions an improvement over individual uncoordinated activities?
+  * do levers come together in a way that can add value?
+  * what impact could we hope for? How do we measure this?

+(Expected) Outcome:
+  * identified issues and tipping points
+  * road map of tools, effects and approaches to use and [timings?] united (reflection on what has/hasn’t worked); mapping of the existing system as it is currently understood; uncovering existing alignments and interpreting the findings
+  * possible future experiment for a strategic set of interventions or projects designed/TOC
+  * framework/survey for structured reflection
+  * visual theory of change
+  * low tech and low cost documentation
+=== Implementation ===
+  * Ideally everyone can be included at different points
+  * Allow common evaluation with some kind of format/criteria (look at past experiences to identify components of a behaviour change [poj.?]
+. Horizon scan for tipping points, future opportunities,
+  * WG review of information (like-minded or interested people to reflect/draw out [levering?] and opps
+  * help uncovering emerging issues
+. Explore overlap of interests and scenarios for action (Venn diagrams of interests)
+. Go/no go check (feasibility)
+. Architect to design and [innovate?]
+Resources:
+  * staff time (commission others outside of the group for research)
+  * separate meeting
+  * buy-in/contributions of learning from others
+    * willingness to open up strategies
+    * review of potential options to test logic, feasibility, common tipping points and future interest
+== Needs ==
+  * Contributions of knowledge and learning to identify components of behaviour change; case studies, reflection, stories, suggestions, interpretation/analysis
+  * Come to group discussion
+  * Buy-in to horizon scanning and where [xxx] to intervene
+  * Suggestion of others outside of the group
+  * Testing the logic
+== Offers ==
+  * MVL: Time, examples, analysis, [Lessons learned?], horizon scanning
+  * Nic: My time, reflection on past experiences, horizon scanning, interpretation, experimental project design
+  * Andrew Farmer: Horizon scanning, meetings
+  * Amy: Time, ideas, experiences, horizon scanning, meeting venue, cake
+  * Sue: review of success and what has worked
+  * NEF: share our experience, lessons in campaigning, training and movement building
+  * SL: Review of lessons learned, horizon scanning [+planning?]
+  * Louisa [intelligence?] from outside [around context?]
+  * Giles: System [xxx] architecture, [getting up?] hypothesis of what needs to happen when; [Horizon Scanning xxxxxxx -> can’t read that whole post-it]; Look at [xxx] ["xxx"] elements from each [initiative?]
