Polycrisis Assessment Toolkit consists of 10 parts. Here´s one you test now.
Purpose: Diagnose the information environment before it quietly wrecks your response. Fill
these in:
• Official Narrative
○ In one sentence, what is the story we are telling about this crisis?
• Alternative Narratives
○ List at least three others currently circulating (media, social media, opposition,
conspiracy forums).
• Gaps & Tensions
○ What is true in those alternative narratives that ours ignores?
○ Where are we clearly over- or under-promising?
• Information Chokepoints
○ Who controls the key data streams?
○ Where could legitimate information be delayed, distorted, or silenced?
If your narrative scan finds large gaps between what is happening and what you’re saying, you have the seed of a legitimacy crisis on top of everything else.
