Building Structures for Conceptual Reflection
Each group presented their accordion and began identifying connections across themes. This process helps reduce the perceived separation between different practices and social scenarios, fostering an integrated understanding of the larger system through its constituent parts. It supports the gradual development of a gestalt perspective, one that will continue to take shape during the field immersion
