To act as a guide, or a starting point, we have created a few suggested ways to use the toolkit, depending on what you want to get from it. These are only offered as invitations, and we encourage you to change these to better suit your purpose.
These initial examples are the first of many more to come. If you have any feedback on how these routes could be improved, or how they worked for you, or other example routes you would like to see or share, please tell us.
The navigation structure we have created as a recommendation is also a helpful way to plan your journey through the tools.
There are thousands of potential ways to weave tools together, and we encourage you to find your own. Our guidance would be to follow the pattern of:
This creates a journey where participants can become prepared for and receptive to the complexity and uncertainty of tipping points, have a chance to play with what it means in practice for them, and then come away with practical ideas for prioritised actions.
Each of these example routes has been created following this pattern.

Long term strategic planning This is the work that the Toolkit has been designed for - the ongoing work for social and environmental change. Shifting towards a focus on systems change and tipping points is not quick, but it requires clear intention and commitment. This is one example of how you might use the Toolkit to navigate through such a process. This kind of work is never complete, but can be undertaken in a series of cycles that follow a pattern of action, reflection, and learning.
Personal Learning There is plenty to explore for solo discovery and reflection. This could take place in one go, or small pockets of time when you have space. All you need is internet access and a way to take notes.
In-Person Workshop If you have a group together in person, it's a great opportunity to use physical movement and play to bring Positive Tipping Points to life. This route should take around a day, with plenty of time for discussion. If you have less time, you could skip some of the middle tools.
Taster Session Before you can go through a long-term change process with a group, you might need to get them excited for and curious about Positive Tipping Points. This route, which can be done online or in person, is a great introduction to the possibilities of the Toolkit.
