Visualization Challenge & Selection       The tool I chose to use is storytelling because in my opinion people feel more connected  to stories other than anything. And especially the topic I chose story telling is effective other  than anything else.

Application

I started to interview different people and observe people in my area. I interviewed localists  and some shopkeepers and some of their customers. I told them about my topic and asked for  their opinions.   Insight & Approach

What I have learned from conducting this exercise with several groups is that while the opinions–  especially the revised public opinion that incorporates their feedback – is important for reinforcing their  understanding of the problem they are working to solve; the more valuable aspect of the activity is the  shared insights and shared learning that occurs while they are working to define their problem spaces.

I am sharing a story of a shop owner whom I interviewed he runs a business of Chemical fertilizers.

He doesn’t have that much of expanded business. What his opinion was people don’t want to pay a  rupee more basically they want things at cheaper costs. He told his customers about the made in China  products and their pros and cons. Some of his customers denied him for buying alternatives because of  its higher costs. But some of them got ready to buy the alternatives. But after the clash on Ladakh  border majority of his customers buys alternatives even without telling. The surprising thing for me was  that the owner was facing loss still he was promoting alternatives. And people became aware about  what products are they purchasing. I believe if we can boycott made in China products it is a chance for  us to enter in a global market as a worthy and strong opponent of China.
