Stakeholder engagement and analysis

There are a vast number of approaches to stakeholder engagement and analysis. The choice of which to use depends on the complexity of the issues to be discussed and the purpose of the engagement, both of which will be determined in the initial steps of the project, where a careful evaluation of the time and resources available should be performed. There is no 'one size fits all' formula but a number of tools and techniques that can be applied to suit a given situation. The level of participation can be illustrated using the ladder of participation. Engagement closer to selfmobilisation is not necessarily 'better' because it is more participatory.
