About the event
Many professionals are trained to produce information but not trained to translate information into public understanding.
Reports are published. Dashboards are launched. Articles are written. Yet audiences are often left to interpret meaning on their own — without clear connection to the issue, the policy context shaping outcomes, or the implications for communities.
The IPAR Method™ (Issue, Policy, Analysis, Resources) provides a structured framework for interpretation that helps practitioners move from information production to meaning-making.
The IPAR Story Lab™ provides space to apply this framework in practice.
Participants develop original work grounded in evidence and oriented toward public understanding.
