Who it’s for: Ideal for learners who have a solid understanding of systems dynamics modelling and are seeking to integrate it with participatory methodology.

Why we love it: This book chapter offers a guide on how to effectively engage stakeholders in mapping diverse systems through a methodology developed by the authors, participatory systems mapping (PSM). The authors provide an overview of PSM alongside a brief history, discuss its purpose, strengths, and weaknesses, and provide a guide for getting started yourself.
