Recognising the power of framing


PROMOTING understanding and analysing “thinking” is an important endeavour of the Rapera movement that I’m involved in. This is because the power of collective thinking is often underestimated and overlooked in its influence on shaping societies.

I believe society in general is unaware of its pervasive influence. Our thoughts, beliefs and values as a society are not merely individual constructs but are deeply influenced by the way they are framed collectively. The framing of collective thinking embodies the narratives, ideologies and perspectives that shape our understanding of the world.
