The New Roots delivery standard
Every session must answer four questions.
- What did we experience?
- What did we notice?
- What does it teach us?
- How will we apply it beyond the programme?
Facilitators do more than supervise activities. They hold a respectful container, use nature as teacher, turn experience into meaning, build practical capability, protect professional scope and collect evidence of the intended outcome.

Venue requirements
