2: T21 Projects
Build a critical mass of people and organizations with systems thinking skills. Other Information:
MI seeks to build a critical mass of people and organizations with systems thinking skills, by promoting systems literacy
and dynamic modeling tools in the public policy realm, civil society, private sector, and academic institutions in the developing
and industrialized world. Customizing and institutionalizing T21 requires completing a series of tasks concurrently. These
include identifying the core issues, training key staff, institutionalizing the model, pilot testing and ongoing applications.
This process usually takes between 1 - 3 years (see general timeline), and it is a tool that can be updated as the need arises.
MI's approach is not to come in and give answers or provide a ready-made tool, as this contradicts our goal to empower people
and governments to build societies that are peaceful, equitable and sustainable. Instead, our approach involves extensive
consultation to make sure the model fits a country's needs and priorities, and leverages local knowledge and expertise. Clients
interested in using T21 as their comprehensive planning tool should discuss and confirm the following in order to begin a
project:
