This workshop addresses storymaking and narrative resources (such as storytelling filmmaking and aesthetic art forms) as educational tools in relation to participation and involvement in management of resources and development in local society. Drawing on intersections between urban ecology, postcolonial studies, pedagogy, healthcare practices and narratology we will discuss conditions for participation in societal issues among students and their social settings in educational programs in Cape Town as well as in Europe and possible roles of narrative tools in these matters. Participants in this workshop will join the initial phase of a South African - Swedish panel group process involving brainstorming on central aspects to be considered when using narrative as resource for education on participation and involvement in management of resources. After this initial step, participants will be invited to sorting ideas and themes on the subject online. The final outcome will be a conceptual development on using narrative as educational tools in relation to participation and involvement in management of resources and development in local society.
