reflection on the story - experience. Values personal exp as
learning-teaching tool and methodology. Transfers knowledge to others
that would otherwise be lost. Move from content focus to process
focus. But need to provide content. Answers the mythology problem of
creating nonviolent myth alternatives. Stories are creative, each
listener is at the same level, it creates a temporary alternative
reality as determined and controlled by story teller. Can be used in
different situations for different purposes. Others can tell story, or
insert their own. There are no right and wrong ways to tell a story.
Focus is on drawing lessons. Also on internalising the values of the
story. Helps communities realise they're not on their own, and not
starting from zero, helps communities avoid common traps and tactics
used by companies-other interests. Low cost. Can be done anywhere. Is
relational. Culturally engaging and normative.
