====== How our emotions influence our social commitments? ======

===== Objectives: =====

  * Acknowledging to what extend our emotions influence our commitment in society
  * Revealing the diverse ways we react and deal with a same situation
  * Getting inspired by other's point of views, encouraging collective intelligence
  * Allowing everyone to express.

===== Scenario =====

**Duration:** 45 minutes to 1 hour.

First introduce the participants to the positioning exercise. The idea is to take position regarding one tricky situation by using 2 axis. There are no good or bad answers. The objective is to represent how we react in real life in order to **open an discussion** on the "**WHYs**" and "**HOWs**".

State the situation and ask the participants to take position regarding the **way they feel** (vertical axis) and the **way they act** (horizontal axis).\\
When everybody has taken position, invite 4 volunteers to **explain theirs**. Choose preferably people whose position are radically different and people who usually don't express themselves that much in the group.

**Situation 1: An association distributes evening meals for migrants.**
  * I feel confident / I don't feel confident (vertical axis)
  * I go there / I don't go there (horizontal axis).

**Situation 2: A non-violent direct action is proposed by an activist group. I don't know what we are going to do.**
  * I am afraid / I am not afraid (vertical axis)
  * I participate / I don't participate (horizontal axis).

===== Material required =====

  * Painting tape or chalk to draw the axis on the ground
  * A big room to move in the space
  * 4 A4 / situation to precise the meaning of the axis.
