All different, all equal

Toolkit

“All different all equal reloaded” is a getting-to-know each other activity that is based on finding similarities and differences between group members, and expressing them by short non-verbal theatrical sketches or miming. The other group members have to guess what similarity or difference in displayed. It is a fun way of breaking the ice and finding out about each other, while at the same time engaging in a collective creative and playful process. This activity can be connected and related to any introspective type of query participants want to pose. Per se, the activity is very simple, participants are asked to individually go outdoors (any outdoors/natural space will work) and ask them to find a place, a specific place, that somehow attracts them and strongly calls their attention, not to try to force it. Once they find the place to stop, and to actually ask this space in nature why it called to them, what does it want to tell them, and be open for any answers they may receive. The goal is to remain in the space for as long as they feel it is necessary, and once they feel the process is complete, to show gratitude to this place, and to reciprocate the favour received of the learnings with a gift a present meant for the place.
