Mandates

My method is free, and I look for foundations and research funds to develop and spread it. Mandates complement it: when an organisation wants me to apply it with its audiences, we agree on a mandate.

Three resources that complement each other

Funding sustains what stays open to everyone. A mandate pays for the tailor-made work done with you. The community extends the model through its contributions.

Funding from a foundation or a research fund

It serves to launch the model and make it available with no strings attached.

  • The method, the guides and the games under a free licence
  • Training for facilitators
  • Evaluating and publishing the results

A mandate

It pays for the work I do with you, for your situation.

  • Support, a game jam, a project framing
  • Priced days and deliverables in a written offer
  • A regular income, which lets me carry on

Contributions from the community

People take up the model, improve it and spread the word, with no financial return.

  • Games, guides and translations shared under a free licence
  • Feedback and reuses reported on this site
  • Facilitators who keep the method alive in their own groups

Four ways to entrust me with a mandate

For a foundation or a research fund

You are looking for a credible project leader, aligned with your mission, who accounts for what they do. Here is what you can check on this site.

  • Verifiable legitimacy

    A doctorate rated outstanding, funding obtained from research funds and foundations in Switzerland, Canada and France, a list of works with their identifiers.

    Journey

  • Open results

    Games, guides and a method under a free licence, clinical studies, a field story with its ethics protocol.

    Research

  • Evaluation with the people concerned

    Co-design, mixed methods (interviews, observation, measurements) and open dissemination of the results.

    Participatory research and evaluation

  • Governance in evolution

    Breathing Games Association is registered in the Geneva commercial register and audited. We are working to improve how it operates.

Open a conversation

A conversation commits you to nothing. Tell me about your fund, your programme and what you are looking to support.

Write about funding

From first meeting to mandate

In this sector, consultancies come mostly through recommendation and published calls. The site helps you check, then ask.

  1. You hear about me

    A recommendation, a call for consultants, a publication.

  2. You recognise yourself

    An offer that names your situation: consulting beneficiaries, sick people or children, and being accountable to them.

  3. You read a similar case

    The Burkina Faso story: context, ethics, effects, toolkit.

  4. You check the ethics

    A protocol that anticipates fifteen risks, revocable consents, children recognised as co-authors.

  5. You ask for a file and an offer

    A written reply within 24 hours, and a two-page sheet.

    The two-page sheet

  6. We agree on days and deliverables

    The offer prices the days, the deliverables and what stays openly accessible.
