# Elements **At its heart, this project is all about** [People](/about/goals/people.md) **and** [Education](/about/goals/education.md)**.** Why those two and not, say, [Data](/about/elements/data.md)? A couple of reasons: 1. First, we know from research and our own experience that data is a tool used by people for outcomes; building this project only on data would miss the opportunity space offered by the adjacent possible that people discover by asking critical questions. 2. Second, we believe that a mindset shift toward learning will enable a culture of innovation (our mission) in ways that simply having more data or information will not. When starting out, we recalled all the frustrations many of us experienced in our daily work (especially government employees) and determined that it would not suffice to let a particular visualization tool drive applications. You may not *think* you care about the data (though you *should*), but we want to be clear that this is where we start: people and data. What you probably *do* care about, especially if you're reading this page, is **how you can use the project**. To that end, please continue reading to learn more about its core features and future development we are considering, or skip ahead to [Use Cases](/about/use-cases.md) to see our hypotheses about how someone like you might benefit. * [Data](/about/elements/data.md): What powers the project. * [Graph](/about/elements/graph.md): How the project data is connected. * [Map](/about/elements/map.md): Where to find the project in your neighborhood. * [Timeline](/about/elements/timeline.md): How the project data shows evolution over time. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question. Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.natsec.io/about/elements.md?ask= ``` The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
