Purposedifferent

It gives everyone thinking space and gathers contributions without social brakes, making diversity more visible and easier to build on.Intervention Mapping translates a need for change into a planned, evaluable program. The method connects target group, determinants, actions, and measurement into a traceable chain.The method makes visible why two seemingly incompatible demands arise and which assumption must be tested to resolve the conflict.
