It involves participants physically acting out their characters and interacting with each other and the environment in a fictional world.

VALUES FOR CALLING UP JUSTICE

By calling up these values, we are able to prioritize and address the complex and interconnected issues that impact marginalized communities and work towards creating meaningful and lasting change. These values also recognize that justice is not a single-issue concern, but rather a multifaceted and interconnected set of values that must be considered and upheld in all aspects of our lives. By embracing and actively working towards these values, we can create a more inclusive and equitable world for all.
