Resources

The RAAKS resource box provides theory, an introduction to the method, and a toolkit for team use. The book "The social organization of innovation" details RAAKS' foundation in scientific theory and development practice. The manual "Networking for innovation" addresses the method itself and gives a brief introduction to building a RAAKS team. The cards in the binder are the "windows" (guides that help open up new perspectives on the analysis) and "tools" (to help in gathering and processing information). Together, the manual and the cards provide a menu of field-tested methodological elements for teams to use in their explorations.

One in a series of eight complementary documents developed for people interested in assessing sustainability. This booklet describes a set of questions about people's relations with each other and the ecosystem. Its main purpose is to support self assessment, but it is also useful as an introduction to identifying changes in ecosystem and human wellbeing in system assessment.
