How we organise ourselves

An inquiry into the interconnectedness of human-made systems and communities; the structure and function of organizations; societal decision-making; economic activities and their impact on humankind and the environment.

• How are words and numbers used in our community?

• Why are words and numbers important in our lives?

To delve into these questions and others, we set off to Gulshan II Market. By going to a place that we are all familiar with but looking at it in a different light, students explored how words and numbers connect us in society. Interviews with shopkeepers, acquisition of receipts and business cards and monetary transactions further solidified the function of words and numbers.
