This video script delves into the application of the Iceberg Model as a crucial tool in systems thinking, particularly for understanding and solving poverty. The Iceberg Model metaphorically illustrates both visible elements and hidden dynamics of a system or problem, akin to an iceberg's visible tip and its larger submerged portion. The model encourages looking beyond immediate, visible problems (e.g., the rising rates of type 2 diabetes among children) to explore underlying causes at different levels: patterns of behavior, systematic structures, and mental models including psychological, biological factors, and belief systems. Through asking 'why' questions at each level, the script emphasizes the importance of identifying root causes and interconnectedness in systems, ultimately leading to leveraging points for effective and sustainable solutions. The goal is to foster a deeper understanding of the complex systems underlying global challenges like poverty, moving beyond superficial fixes to target the root of the issue systematically.
