Visual Literacy tools
The following Visual Literacy tools aim to encourage users shed light on their thought patterns and become aware of their own thinking – feeling – acting processes. Our experiences hold a pivotal role in anchoring our perceptions, assumptions, and perspectives in the present and for the future. These tools explore the assumptions that lay behind the stories we tell and the narratives we share as members of our collectives. They aim to support willful choice and agency and unlock new possibilities in our personal and professional lives that lead to sustainable and equitable living.
