Collaborative System Thinking (CST)
Connecting Health and Education System Stakeholders (CHESS)
CHESS is a community-defined, research- and evidence-based methodology that involves strategic community capacity-building and transformation planning in its design. CST ignites human development to legitimize the building of a continuum of social structure.
Community-led, Worker-Owned Workforce.
Instituting a multifaceted health and education system requires simultaneous engagement with leaders from both the internal (government) and external (community) social structures. CST creatively disrupts the chain of command to favor community-led, participatory engagement.
