Our Work
Here is where our beliefs and our instincts are put to the test, to see just how well the practice supports the theory. From this body of work, research papers and articles will be made available to other practitioners to judge the effectiveness of the outcomes of our Project.
This body of work has four distinct but interconnected standards; please click the links below to get more details.
