Reflection on storytelling

Storytelling of Project about enviromental education from Villa El Salvador

Challenge and selection

The Storytelling Tool has been an excellent tool to apply in my career. I study sociology an d my work consists of designing social projects that in a certain way improve an aspect of t he reality that people in human settlements live. The project consists of conducting a serie s of workshops on environmental education for all the inhabitants of the Oasis II A human  settlement located in the district of Villa el Salvador in the south of Lima, region of Peru. T o capture the attention of people as a team we have thought of meeting in community ass emblies where we have asked for the attendance of everyone including children and adole scents. The idea is to train environmental promoters, so we thought we would tell the foll owing story based on a little fiction. The idea of telling this story is to generate an emotion  in people where they see that climate change is not a distant reality for them, it is someth ing constant.

Application

One of the companions will disguise himself as a mime and tell the story of a place called Oasis that  had a beautiful river of crystalline waters and surrounded by beautiful trees, soon the people who  lived around it drank from the water of this river, soon with the arrival of a commercial center,  people began to generate solid waste and to discard it to the river, soon the river that was of  crystalline waters became dark, so much that it began to generate stomach diseases to the people.  One of the local children warned the population with a sad face and a sign that if they did not stop  polluting the river it would no longer be their water source and the trees would also be damaged.  Once the story was over, we decided to divide the population into age groups, each made up of 6  members. The children formed their groups, the adolescents another and the adults another group.  Three questions would be asked:1) what pollution problems do they see in the community? 2) how  they can reverse the contamination in their community 3) how they would like their community to  be

Insight and Approach

Once the answers are obtained what we propose as a team is to meet and analyze the answers of  the participants, in the analysis we will be able to know what the population visualizes as  environmental problems in their community, secondly we will be able to analyze what they could  do as solutions from their vision, and thirdly what is the idea of community free of contamination.  With these results we will be able to see which group shows more interest in being part of the  environmental promoters, with them we would try to promote an environmental culture in the  community, that is to say, they are the ones who will help give the workshops to the neighbors.
