Over the past dozen years, The ARIA Group has created and applied a dynamic and participatory visioning process called ARIA-C3 to help organizations define, monitor and evaluate success. ARIA-C3, formerly known as Action Evaluation, is a three-lens visioning process that helps individuals and groups collaboratively set and implement a value-driven agenda for change. Based in action research, conflict resolution and organizational learning theory, C3 combines research with action to guide change in complex environments. An effective and systematic social change and participatory planning process, C3 allows organizations and communities to accomplish their goals and corresponding action plans, while capturing citizen interest and commitment and building monitoring and evaluation into the infrastructure of the programming.
