 + 
 +===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?\\

-[[https://www.flickr.com/photos/foam/16831930815/|full size image]]+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.?] 
 + 
 +1. 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 
 + 
 +2. Explore overlap of interests and scenarios for action (Venn diagrams of interests) 
 + 
 +3. Go/no go check (feasibility) 
 + 
 +4. 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?
