Advisory Experiences
Description:
Boardgame Law 54 in Puerto Rico is a tool to
sustain a critical dialogue between professionals
from various branches who work with survivors and
victims of gender violence in the country. This tool
was designed along with Lic. Maricarmen Carrillo-
Justiniano, interested in innovating approaches for
Legal Intercession training. The game brought to the
table how 15 not so fictitious characters confronted the
judicial system and relevant social services to exercise
“La Ley 54 en Puerto Rico” their right to a dignified life.
[The Law 54 in Puerto Rico]
(2017)
Objectives:
Client:
Maricarmen Carrillo-Justiniano 1. Reveal how the system hinders access to justice.
(Lawyer) 2. Understand how professional prejudices obstruct
the path to dignity.

 Description:
The beehive boardgame was developed to facilitate a
meeting of up to 30 people convoked by Rio Piedra’s
Community Board. The tool, designed with Mónica
Ponce, a community social worker and boardmember
Ana María Luqui, made it easy for those who played
to trace their efforts, misteps, reflect internal situations
and external threats, while identifying how to improve
and power-up the collective honeycomb.

Objectives:
1. Motivate and boost collective work.
“La Colmena de Río Piedras”
[Rio Piedra’s Beehive] 2. Connect local leadership with the established
(2019) Community Board.
3. Adhere new leaders to the Community Board.
Client:
Junta Comunitaria de Río Piedras 4. Reflect on the tenure and usefulness of land co-
[Rio Piedras Community Board] ownership embedded in Law 75
5. Understand the conjuncture of CDBG funding,
expropriations and austerity measures.

Design Experiences
Description:
“La Calle está dura” is a novel tool designed by
Mabel Lopez, a university professor and social worker
wanting to foster critical dialogues about issues of
gender, sexuality, and sexual orientation with the
elderly. Following boardgame fashion, we integrated
a dice, a map and places to navigate. After taking a
pawn, players would move along this intriguing street,
to challenge their ideologies in the cafe, barbershop,
church, and more.

Objectives:

a safe and brave space.

Scope of Service
The Pueblo Critico, Inc. team will make professional recommendations at different
scales: individual (personal), family and institutional, guided by the best professional
judgment. The judgment is based on the ethical-political code ascribed as professional
canons for social work and psychology in the country. We rely on the method of
accompaniment, for social work practice, as defined by our corporation; and evaluation
and/or therapy, for the psychology practice. Any accompaniment will be adjusted to
the goals we are hired to address in a given educational institution, parting from the
theoretical-methodological framework of Pueblo Critic, Inc.

We emphasize that the methodological scope of the Accompaniment exceeds

the traditional Case Management, mostly used in department and agencies of the
Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. However, it acts in accordance with and is due to
the Association of Social Workers Act and to the Act to Regulate the Practice of the
Profession of Psychology in Puerto Rico, as well as their respective codes of ethics. This
means that in the event of facing sensitive situations that violate the Puerto Rico Safety,

 Our
Tools

Our tool production has emerged collectively, as needed in

accompaniment processes throughout three years of experience.
Thus, their titles, purposes, and characteristics are closely related
to the context in which they were born. However, most of them
can spark many critical dialogues far and wide. They may bring the
content needed to be discussed in a particular group, or it can serve
as the canvas to plan ahead. Be it as it may, the experience showed
us that by sharing these creations, we have awakened the interest
of professionals and activists wanting to integrate them beyond
their intended purpose. Eager to see the most elegant step any of
them can take, we offer them, the possibility of changing/adapting
their design and content to broaden the scope towards people,
professionals, groups, organizations, and institutions. Our tools are
categorized into three areas:

1. Work Guides: Focused on how to operate, design and

systematize from Popular Education.
2. Dialogical-Critical Tools: They are board games, cards, and
exercises based on the analysis of reality for its transformation.
3. Planning Tools: Designed to assist collective planning, from
diagnosis to scheduling of efforts.

Florenzan, A (2018)

youth on the various problems of social
reality. Those who play are positioned at
the “exit” of the game with a chip. The die

on the board. As they fall into the purple or
turquoise squares, they lift the color card, see
the image, and answer the question “What
do you see?” It provides an opportunity to
explore which problems we identify and which
do not, of our social reality.

matters. Also, they discuss a law that protects its infrastructure and the threats that require solidarity,
combative and committed community work. A useful game for any community that wants to measure
its fever. To play, grab a bee, dress it, roll the dice and coordinate strategies to connect honeycombs,
while storms (rain, wind, fire, and earthquakes) will do their part to prevent any community, geographic
or functional, from harvesting their honey. Requires adaptation of cards before being played by other
communities. Original language: Spanish

The Clock of Ideas

Gerónimo-López, K. & Torres Caraballo, S. (2019)
» A poster to assemble in parts, guided by a script with premises that trigger the conversation about
personal and collective time. If you are interested in estimating the time you have for a personal or
collective initiative, use this tool to outline what other dimensions of life it will compete with. First,
we explore the notions we have about time, what the clock represents. Then we delve into what is
hiddenly happening in each person’s clockwork. Those who participate compare and contrast how
other people manage their time, their work rhythms, their commitment and willingness to create or
undertake something new. One part is collective, the other is a personal introspection and then we
return to the plenary discussion. Great for putting your feet on the ground, reaching consensus on
what is possible and landing expectations into reality!

building curriculum. Starting with the
identification of topics to work on. From
there, delimiting each thematic depth
(how far do you go with each topic?)
And the order of priority (what do we
practice first and what do we practice
later?). Using the culinary metaphor, an
educational program can be structured
Menú
according to the needs and interests
of those who will participate in it.
Each idea is expressed on post-its and

Day & Night Childcare

July, 2019

Description:
In July 2019, the people were rallying, so we supported the demonstrations by
providing care for the offsprings of those interested in marching that were looking for
trustworthy childcaring. The service was highly demanded, free and strictly organized.
Other people supported the initiative to provide snacks during the day and night.
