Stakeholder mapping workshop

This workshop, from the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), aimed at locally elected officials involved in environmental governance allows participants to gain knowledge and experience of mapping to identify stakeholders.

It also introduces a range of strategies for making productive use of stakeholder interests and capabilities. 

Excerpt

"When the stakeholder map is complete, prioritize stakeholders according to the relative importance of their participation and support. To do this, write on a slip of paper the three stakeholder groups on the map whose participation and support, in your opinion, is most important relative to the group's ability to manage its chosen environmental problem. Of the three you have selected, choose one as the most important, another as the second most important and another as the third. Indicate your choices by numbering the three stakeholders as follows."
