Summary

To promote understanding, sharing and appropriation, it is essential to use expression and representation tools that mobilise these different channels: stories, graphs, maps, role plays, brainstorming on post-its….

The outputs must be carefully designed so as not to be misinterpreted and used out of context by end users. These tools should favour visual and animated indicators rather than classical graphs. The hypothesis taken in the formulation should also be advertised and clearly documented.

The objective is not to produce a single representation format but rather a collection of different perspectives on the issue under consideration to feed everyone’s thinking. The uncertainty inherent in different assessment approaches should also be part of the communication of results.
