Expository Activities

These “groundwork” activities allow participants to begin thinking about such difficult subjects such as gender, gender-based violence, sexuality, and social norms—and how these subject impact health and health programming. They are critical in allowing participants the opportunity to ponder new ideas, challenge widely-held norms and beliefs, and open their mind to outside opinions and perspectives. In day-to-day work, people rarely have the opportunity to discuss theory. Thus, expository activities are designed to allow participants to put their daily responsibilities aside and open their minds to new ideas and possible interventions. Expository activities encourage dialog and creative discourse.
