Ecological tipping points are being crossed, and it’s crunch time for action, adaptation, and mitigation on the climate and ecological crises; now more than ever. You only have to read the data coming from global sea temperatures to feel highly concerned.
And…
It’s a General Election year in the UK, expected to be held in the Autumn.
We are looking forward to systems-mapping the main political party manifestos ahead of a general election, which is likely to be held in the autumn. Rather than just understanding how the parties are addressing single issues, we want to shed light on how ‘joined-up ’ they are around key ‘Shared Outcomes’ across health, climate, nature and equity – all of which underpin a thriving economy and ecology.
Whilst we work closely with Councils around the UK and with central government, including the Cabinet Office, at OnePlanet we are not party affiliated in any way.
We want to use our systems-mapping tool to translate the main party manifestos into the OnePlanet platform and feedback on them based on how well they address the Young Leaders’ Manifesto.
The Young Leaders’ Manifesto is a collaborative, living document created by young people around the UK to communicate what activity needs to be taken for a livable future, without restrictions placed upon them.
You can read more about the Young Leaders Manifesto here.
Importantly, we will not be changing the information from Party strategies or manifestos, we will be converting it into our ‘language’ of Outcomes, Actions and Indicators so that it is explorable as a systems-mapped Mindmap. We will do our best to maintain original wording and meaning from the manifestos we map. The point of this is to represent the manifesto’s information as a system, so that we can better understand it, and then find connections, gaps and opportunities to improve between the parties.
To support this work, the Customer team alongside the Tech Development team are looking at how to develop ‘negative’ linking. This is so that an Action can be shown to having multiple cost-benefits towards various Outcomes, those which contribute as well as detract from achieving them.
Once systems-mapped, party manifestos will be published on our platform, so they are explorable for all, without a need to login to OnePlanet.
