Chapter 5: Project implementation: field work mapping process begins by identification of a few broad categories of stakeholder (e.g. government agencies, civil society, local communities, private sector). This helps to ensure that all potential stakeholders are identified. As a rule, it is better to assume that a particular group is a relevant stakeholder than to rule them out before thorough checks have been carried out. All stakeholders affected by, or interested in, the project should be assigned to a particular category. For each specific stakeholder, the project developer should identify the level of influence over success of the project, as compared to other stakeholders, the level of interest in the project and the priority issues for each of these groups. This is important in order to decide what is the appropriate engagement strategy for each stakeholder. Stakeholder consultation should be integrated throughout the whole project management cycle. It is not cheap or easy. However, it can both increase benefits and reduce risk in the long run. Moreover, by ensuring that all local stakeholders have been effectively included in the development of the project, the risk of facing conflict at a later stage is reduced. Local stakeholders can be an important source of knowledge, information, and labour for activities including participatory mapping, impact assessment and inventory. Other stakeholders, such as NGOs and government agencies, may also be important sources of knowledge. The stakeholder consultation process provides an opportunity to identify how each stakeholder can contribute to the project, their motivation for doing so and how to ensure support for the project. However, the project developer should always bear in mind that each stakeholder group will have concerns about project design or implementation and will want reassurance, through the consultation process, that the project appreciates these concerns and makes efforts to address them. Figure 14 summarizes some common stakeholder categories, priority issues and engagement strategies. 131
