Youth Wellbeing Social Lab

Thought Experiment Laboratory is a think tank based in Uithoorn, Holland.
I and a team of six other Kaospilots led the development and creation of the Youth Wellbeing Social Lab. The goal of this social lab was to bring together professionals from different facets of the mental wellbeing industry, from psychologists to experts in breathwork with the intention of ideating and creating new solutions to wellbeing for youth in Holland.

As a team we facilitated each other through an iterative strategic process known as the WILL (weekly iterative loop list), which is a hacked method we developed as a collective using methodologies from Theory U, Systems Thinking, and SCRUM.

I facilitated and designed three online workshops and one physical workshop with participants we reached out to help us develop and grow our Youth Wellbeing Lab concept. These three workshops were primarily about connecting around a purpose as an organization and having the system of wellbeing practitioners meet each other. As we began to recruit more volunteers taking us towards a concept, I built a Slack channel and took charge of the LinkedIn page where we kept our participants up-to-date on upcoming workshops.

Throughout our process, we drew inspiration from Theory U, the Social Labs Fieldbook, Thinking in Systems, and SCRUM methodologies.
