Older Notes

  • build from kcoda's networks ... committees, monitors, paralegals, in each ward. "Change Agents"

Questions for printed map sessions

From http://rising.globalvoicesonline.org/kolkata/2008/09/

Here's one I found (replace "para" with...village) that could be really interesting addition to paper map exercise.

I would also replace a lot of the "who" with "where" so they can draw it. But liking some questions like...when you need x where do you go?

If we could get someone else to facilitate this with maybe the girls groups...would be really cool. even one mapper could do it, or jane.

Activity Two: Para Map Making: Personal Map of Bow Bazaar and You

Each participant will create their personal map of Bow Bazaar and them. This is very different from a regular map with street names, lines, and official landmarks. Rather, this map should represent what Bow Bazaar intimately looks like to the participant. It is a map in which each participant notes, identifies places/spaces/people/animals that carry intimate significance to them personally.

On an A4 size piece of paper create a personal map of Bow Bazaar — mapping what is important to you. Be creative. Use words, colors, art, images, etc.

Prompt Questions:

  • When you are feeling sad, where do you go in your neighborhood?
  • Places where you fell in love?
  • Where do you enjoy having an adda?
  • What places do you go to in your para where you feel the need to dress up?
  • Do you have any favorite pets in your para?
  • Who are important people in your para?
  • In crises, who do you go to?
  • Who do you go to for advice?
  • If you need to get things done, who do you go to
  • Who are your enemies?
  • Who are closest to your heart?
  • Who are you afraid of?
  • Somebody you are intrigued by?
  • Places in the para which make you Happy? And Make you Sad?
  • Your favorite tree in the para?
  • Favorite eating place?
  • If you have visitor, what parts of the para do you take them around to?
  • Are there some special games that you play in the para?
  • What are you favorite festivals in your para? Where do they happen?
  • What are your favorite sounds inside the para? Specific sounds at night? Specific sounds during Morning? Or afternoon?
  • One thing in your Para that you want to change? One thing in your para that you don’t want to change?


  • where do you parents tell you not to go?

Comments on Questions

One area that might need more thought and consultation is the questions. This is a good start and included some relevant and innovative subjects. But given that you observed more latent knowledge about vulnerability and health (and AIDS?) than had been apparent, it would be great to work with the local people to figure out what questions would bring that out. A few of the Kolkata questions might do so, but my guess is that if used as they now stand, they would more likely produce some interesting replies but not much actionable information about prevention messages and focus of community action and follow up. I have no special expertise in this field, but I would imagine that the questions should included a combination of more pointed questions about "where do you feel scared?" and "where do people say this or that activity - casual sex, drug use, predatory old men -- is taking place? "(maybe leaving unasked whether the respondent has first hand knowledge). It might be a good technique to ask "where do you feel good" questions to establish safe spaces and give some context to the negative, but I don't think we'll get the vulnerability picture without asking vulnerability questions more directly.
