Systemic Approach
Deep Demo
Deep Demo is an innovative approach aimed at addressing complex challenges in various contexts, promoted by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) to foster sustainable development.
The guiding principles of the approach are:
Systemic Perspective
It focuses on understanding and managing complex systems, recognizing the interconnection between their elements and actors, and transcending siloed approaches.
Innovation and Experimentation
It encourages innovation and experimentation to reconfigure development challenges. It identifies new public policy responses, implements prototypes, and demonstrative interventions.
Multi-Stakeholder Collaboration
It involves various actors, including governments, communities, civil society organizations, the private sector, and academia, to collaborate in designing effective solutions.
Deep Listening and Continuous Learning
It employs active listening through various channels to better understand the needs and perceptions of citizens, enabling continuous and adaptive learning.
Co-Creation and Integrated Interventions
It promotes integrated interventions that address diverse perceptions and needs through co-creation processes involving stakeholders in the design and implementation of effective solutions.
Evolutionary Evaluation
It uses an evolutionary evaluation approach guided by learning questions. It monitors and evaluates the impact of interventions, which are adjusted based on the knowledge acquired.
A Comprehensive Approach to Sustainable Development
Systemic thinking in Deep Demo offers a broad vision and a comprehensive perspective to tackle development problems. It understands these challenges as part of a network of interconnected agents. This approach allows identifying the “nodes” of the system and their interactions, facilitating the design of holistic interventions that address the system as a whole, not just isolated parts, resulting in sustainable and far-reaching solutions.
