Short projects can yield amazing results. In a one-week writeshop, we worked with 12 researchers and scientists from 11 countries to create the REDD+ report - a document that set the standard for providing carbon credit monies to individual landowners around the world. To do this, we employed a simple collaborative way of working that allowed all 12 professionals to make the most of the expertise in the room and create their own product at the same time. Partially visual, but strongly collaborative, this system resulted in a concise, understandable product.
