Persona Templates

Using a persona tool was useful in the work with did with West Midlands Combined Authority, as part of climate change engagement workshops: https://www.demsoc.org/projects/wm2041-engagement

It’s a way for people to have conversations and explore topics through Persona Building – a fictional character defined by participants.

This technique goes beyond stigma or any intrusion people may experience in relation to their individual characteristics. Looking at a topic through the eyes of someone else can also broaden thinking.

The templates here can be used to:

• Define a persona
• Explore different topics

The templates can adapt to any topic.

For the climate change workshops, participants explored how they wanted to get involved and have a voice about the climate strategy and plan. Also what information they wanted, and how they wanted to communicate in future about the topic.
