Group Building Activity
5D
The “5D Activity,” also known as the activity of the 5 Axes or the Re-Prioritization is a role game composed of 4 sections and aims at classifying current debatable and controversial chosen events under 5 categories
Aims of the tool
At the end of this activity the participants will
Be aware of the current events;
Realize that their interactions with the given events is related to their ability to control them or impact through them;
Realize the discrepancy in interactions to specific events;
Know that their interaction with the events changes when they move from the personal to the public.
Be able to arrange the events according to their personal vision and priorities;
Differentiate between their responsibilities as active decision makers and passive receivers when choosing the events and sorting them from the least to the most important;
Be able to arrange the events according to their common vision and priorities;
Show empathy towards each other through what is known as collective consolation.
Be able to discuss the events in a rational and objective way, while avoiding emotionality.
Adopt a consensual view on how to approach an event regardless of their interaction with it.
Description of the tool
The categories are based on individual care and influence, prioritizing these events through decision making while playing the role of authority, re-prioritizing these events after discussions with fellow delegates and at the end the participants move from public sphere events to personal ones that are shared in private groups to be later recalled and written by participants on behalf of each other without mentioning names in the form of a comfort book through group counseling . Moreover, the activity allows the delegates to acquire important skills such as critical thinking, ability to negotiate, empathy and dialogue. Finally, this activity can be implemented in any country or community in which the trainer/facilitator customizes the events to fit the context he/she are implementing the activity in.
