This document discusses research uptake strategies presented by Farah Ahmed at a conference in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. It defines research uptake as the effective use of research evidence by decision-makers to improve policy and development outcomes. An effective uptake strategy involves stakeholder engagement, capacity building, communications, and monitoring and evaluation. It should have clear objectives, identify target audiences, and determine how to communicate research findings. The document provides examples of uptake approaches like partnerships, stakeholder mapping, and developing communication products tailored to specific audiences. It also discusses barriers to uptake like institutional policies and leadership, and questions to consider around stakeholder engagement, capacity building, communications planning, and monitoring impact.
Overview of the CTA project: ''Climate change solutions that work for farmers'' in ACP countries.
by Dr Ajayi, Oluyede
Senior Programme Coordinator, Agricultural and Rural Development Policy at the Technical Centre for Agricultural and Rural Cooperation (CTA)
This document discusses the role of protected areas in biodiversity conservation. Some key points made are: 1) Despite protected area initiatives, biodiversity is still being lost, as protected areas are not sufficient on their own. 2) The UK's protected areas are not an ecologically coherent network. 3) Conservation must involve people and consider ecosystem services to value nature. The document proposes developing a future vision for protected areas and nature conservation at different spatial scales through better integration of wider countryside measures and the ecosystem approach.
Community-based Vulnerability Assessements (CBVAs) in GIVRAPD and ParCAintasave-caribsavegroup
This document summarizes community-based vulnerability assessments (CBVAs) conducted in Grenada, Jamaica, and Canada as part of the GIVRAPD and ParCA projects. It discusses different vulnerability assessment methods and the goals of using contextual case studies to understand how climate stresses are experienced in communities. The research aims to determine if climate vulnerabilities are similar between small island states and other coastal areas, and if adaptation strategies can be transferred. The document outlines the ParCA research framework and CBVA process, which includes primary data collection, community feedback, and knowledge mobilization. Initial results suggest vulnerability contexts may be applicable across similar sites, and some adaptation lessons could transfer, but direct vulnerability comparisons are not very feasible due to a lack

Identifying the Potential Adopters of an Agricultural InnovationDave Pannell
This document presents a method for identifying potential adopters of agricultural innovations. The method involves interviewing farmers to understand their farm context and how it relates to the costs and benefits of adopting an innovation. Large surveys are then used to validate the contexts and quantify different benefit segments. As an example, the method identified 5 benefit segments for micro-irrigation adoption among fruit growers, with the total potential adopters being much smaller than assumed. The implications are that research, extension, and policy should tailor their approaches to different farmer segments in order to better support adoption.

Best practice ERP stakeholder analysis strategy and approachJen Mather, PMP
This document outlines a stakeholder analysis approach for a project. It identifies key stakeholder groups, their expectations and needs, and proposed actions to address them. The approach involves identifying stakeholder groups, understanding their expectations, agreeing on actions to meet needs, using findings for risk assessment and communication planning, and updating the organizational change management plan. Example stakeholder groups identified include end users, a steering committee, business managers, reporting users, and external customers and suppliers. The document provides a template for conducting a full stakeholder analysis to help manage stakeholder expectations and risks.
Stakeholder analyses describe a process where all the individuals or groups that are likely to be affected by a proposed action are identified and then sorted according to how much they can affect the action and how much the action can affect them. This information is used to assess how the interests of those stakeholders should be addressed in a project plan, policy, program, or other action.

This information is used to assess how the interests of those stakeholders should be addressed in a project plan, policy, program, or other action.
This document outlines a stakeholder analysis process that includes identifying stakeholders, analyzing them, creating a management plan, and engaging with stakeholders. It defines a stakeholder as anyone affected by or able to influence an organization, strategy, or project. The document recommends identifying stakeholders through mind mapping and categorization, then analyzing their needs, interests, and potential impact. It suggests choosing engagement approaches tailored to each stakeholder and developing a communication plan that addresses information needs, frequency of updates, and communication channels for all stakeholders. The goal is to understand stakeholders and manage them in a way that promotes project success.
The document discusses identifying stakeholders and conducting stakeholder analysis. It defines stakeholders as any entity with interest in a policy or reform. Stakeholder analysis helps identify existing support and opposition to change, and focuses efforts on building partnerships. The analysis involves collecting data on stakeholders' interests, influence, and impact from potential changes through interviews and questionnaires. Stakeholders are then mapped on a matrix based on their interest and power to identify those who can enable or resist changes. The results of the analysis inform a communication plan to effectively engage different stakeholders.
This document discusses stakeholder analysis, which involves generating knowledge about individuals and organizations involved in a situation to understand their behaviors, interests, and relationships. It aims to understand their influence on decision-making and implementation. A stakeholder is anyone affected by or able to influence a situation. Stakeholder analysis is a management tool used to understand different stakeholders' positions, assess the feasibility of policies, develop strategies to influence stakeholders, and facilitate project implementation. It involves identifying stakeholders such as those controlling resources, with political influence, involved in service delivery, or impacting the external environment of an organization. Stakeholder analysis maps stakeholders according to their power and support for/opposition to a situation or policy.
This document discusses stakeholder analysis and management for service delivery changes. It defines stakeholders as individuals or groups with an interest in an organization's activities. Stakeholders are important because they can positively or negatively impact outcomes. The document provides a framework for identifying stakeholders' interests, values, and influence on a service or organization. It also outlines different strategies for interacting with stakeholders based on their level of importance, support, and power. These strategies range from going it alone to merging with a stakeholder.
This document provides guidance on stakeholder analysis, which is an important tool for conservation projects. It defines stakeholders as those with interests in natural resources or who will be impacted by a project. Conducting stakeholder analysis can help identify key stakeholders, potential conflicts, engagement opportunities, and appropriate engagement strategies. The analysis should be done at the start of a project during planning and situation analysis, and continued throughout the project cycle to engage stakeholders and monitor engagement effectiveness. The key steps in analysis are: 1) Identifying stakeholders and their interests; 2) Assessing influence, importance, and impact on stakeholders; and 3) Identifying engagement strategies. Workshops, interviews and focus groups can aid analysis.

Managing Change at British Airways, An IntroductionMiles Agbanrin
Brief introduction to change management at British Airways by Edinburgh University Undergraduates. Presentation briefly covers history of the company and applies introductory concepts to major change events within the firm, concluding with points of interest for further research.
The document discusses stakeholder analysis, which is a process used to identify individuals and groups affected by a decision or action, prioritize them for involvement, and understand their relationships. It provides context on the development of stakeholder analysis in business management and natural resource management. Key methods described for stakeholder analysis include identifying and categorizing stakeholders using matrices, interviews, and social network analysis to explore relationships between stakeholders.
Change Management Made Easier - Know Your Stakeholders: Create advocates within your organization by understanding the motivations of your internal customers.
There are two main theories of stakeholder management: Milton Friedman's theory that only shareholders matter, and Freeman's theory that all stakeholder groups are important to manage. Freeman argued that identifying and managing stakeholders is important for a corporation's consent to operate from the community. Key stakeholder groups include investors, employees, suppliers, customers, and governments. Effective stakeholder management involves identifying stakeholder groups, their interests, and priorities; communicating with them through appropriate channels; and integrating stakeholder analysis into strategic planning and issues management.
The document discusses stakeholder mapping and engagement for influencing key groups. It defines primary and secondary stakeholders and outlines a framework for stakeholder relationship management. This includes identifying stakeholders, assessing their concerns and level of commitment, developing communication strategies, and obtaining ongoing feedback. An example stakeholder map shows positioning stakeholders on a grid based on their influence and criticality to the project. The document proposes building a game plan to move stakeholders toward more supportive orientations through addressing their key issues and assigning team members responsible for engagement strategies.
Stakeholder analysis is used to identify an organization's stakeholders, assess how they may be impacted by or influence the organization, and develop strategies for managing stakeholder relationships. The document defines stakeholders as any person or group that can be positively or negatively affected by an organization's actions. It then discusses different frameworks for categorizing stakeholders, such as internal vs. external, primary vs. secondary, and mapping stakeholders based on attributes like power, interests, and urgency. Performing a stakeholder analysis helps an organization develop strategies to meet stakeholder needs and create value, thereby gaining acceptance and managing risks from stakeholders.
This document provides guidance on stakeholder analysis, which is an important tool for conservation projects. Stakeholder analysis involves three key steps: 1) Identifying stakeholders and their interests in the project, 2) Assessing each stakeholder's influence, importance, and how they may be impacted, and 3) Determining how best to engage stakeholders. Stakeholder analysis should be conducted at the beginning of a project during planning, and revisited throughout implementation to engage stakeholders, ensure sustainability, and monitor engagement effectiveness. The document provides questions to guide each step of analysis.

Operations research (OR) aims to improve health programs through scientific problem solving. OR was first used in WWII and later applied to health in the 1960s. OR involves 5 steps: 1) defining problems through data analysis, 2) selecting strategies to test, 3) experimenting with and evaluating strategies, 4) disseminating results, and 5) replicating successful strategies. Example OR topics include reducing HIV stigma, managing risky sexual behaviors, and improving quality of HIV care. OR studies test interventions through experimental, quasi-experimental, or non-experimental designs to measure impact on outcomes through data collection methods like surveys, interviews and observations.
This document describes a project to identify the characteristics of successful adaptation to coastal climate change.

The document discusses communication strategies for public figures who are obsessed with media coverage. It suggests that issues management, rather than reactive media responses, is a better approach. Regular issues monitoring and stakeholder analysis can help anticipate problems and prevent crises. Framing issues strategically and maintaining open communication with stakeholders is important for managing media attention in a controlled manner.
Facing the future: Sense-making in Horizon ScanningTotti Könnölä
The document summarizes a conference on horizon scanning and sense-making. It discusses how horizon scanning involves collecting observations of potential future developments and deriving policy implications. Sense-making is inseparable from scanning and involves perceiving, interpreting and constructing meaning from emerging trends. The case study described a horizon scanning exercise where 381 issues were identified, assessed, and synthesized into cross-cutting challenges to inform EU policymaking recommendations on sustainability, social changes, and governance.
Leveraging Learning For Development ActionEvan Forward
Presentation given at the Mekong Delta Development Research institute as the culminating progress report of a 2008 Fulbright Fellowship research project.
This document summarizes the results of a Delphi process conducted to gather stakeholder perspectives on community engagement in the Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA) program. Over three rounds, stakeholders identified key benefits of and barriers to community engagement. Key recommendations included making community engagement an explicit priority, including community partners in governance, and establishing metrics to assess engagement impacts. The implications are that the National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences should strengthen its support for community engagement in the CTSA program.

Large Marine Ecosystems: Megaregional Best Practices for LME Assessment and M...Iwl Pcu
This document provides an overview of large marine ecosystems (LMEs) and efforts to implement ecosystem-based management (EBM) of LMEs. It notes that LMEs produce 80% of global fisheries catches and contribute $12.6 trillion annually to the global economy. The document outlines the five module assessment approach used for LMEs, including productivity, fish/fisheries, pollution, socioeconomics, and governance. It discusses how the Global Environment Facility has provided $6.01 billion since 1994 to support EBM planning and implementation projects in 22 LMEs. The LME approach is now the cornerstone of the GEF's ocean management strategy.

This document discusses the development of a Transboundary Diagnostic Analysis (TDA). It outlines the steps to develop the TDA, including defining system boundaries, collecting and analyzing data, identifying and prioritizing transboundary problems, determining the impacts of priority problems, analyzing causes of problems, and developing thematic reports. It also discusses that the TDA provides factual basis for the strategic planning component and should involve engagement with stakeholders throughout the process. Finally, it notes that the TDA development team should be representative of participating countries and stakeholders.
TDA/SAP Methodology Training Course Module 2 Section 10Iwl Pcu
This document provides information about governance analysis as part of the TDA/SAP process. It defines governance as the process of decision-making and implementation. Governance analysis examines the key aspects of political, economic, and civil society processes. It focuses on the dynamics of these relationships. There is no agreed approach, and the type of analysis will depend on the cultural, political, and social structures of the countries involved. The governance analysis should consider the decision-making, institutional, policy, and civil society arrangements that influence economic and political decisions affecting the issues being analyzed. The document provides advice to go beyond formal structures and understand informal dynamics and relationships.

TDA/SAP Methodology Training Course Module 2 Section 9Iwl Pcu
This document provides guidance on drafting a Transboundary Diagnostic Analysis (TDA). It discusses integrating various parts of the TDA, such as thematic reports, studies, and stakeholder analyses. It recommends that a TDA should be concise and easy to understand, with an executive summary, main text, supporting data/figures, maps, a content list, and acknowledgements. Technical reports can be annexed. The TDA size typically ranges from 80-150 pages. Preliminary recommendations for the Strategic Action Program can be included. The TDA should be reviewed by stakeholders and adopted by the steering committee, though government acceptance is also often required.

What is a Stakeholder Analysis?
What methodology is used?
What difficulties were encountered?
What solutions were found?
What is the usefulness of the analysis?
What are the advantages for IWRM?
What are the lessons learned from the
Caspian Environment Programme?
Stakeholder Analysis revisited
3. What is Stakeholder Analysis?
Who are stakeholders?
– Anyone with an interest, a “stake” in the
conditions being addressed by the project
– Including anyone impacted by and impacting
these conditions
What is the objective of the SHA?
– To identify the stakeholder groups
– To gauge their perceptions, interests and
priorities
– To identify areas of tension between groups
4. What methodology is used?
Literature review
Qualitative/ground truthing
Survey development and administration
Database creation
Statistical analysis, using mean and standard
deviation among SHGs
Identify areas of conflict between SHGs
Make suggestions for overcoming conflicts/tensions
both active and emergent
Compare over time, using same questions
5. Difficulties encountered?
Solutions found?
1. Lack of responsiveness from
some sectors
2. Not enough surveys to be
“statistically valid” by social
science criteria
1. More aggressive survey
distribution, personal
appeals with assurance of
confidentiality
2. Unfortunate, but due to low
budgets unavoidable.
Remember there is room for
error, but this is better than
nothing and can be quite
informative.
• Subsequent projects include mechanisms for stakeholder input
throughout the TDA/SAP process span to provide feedback to the
project through Stakeholder Advisory Groups
(Create venues for stakeholder communications)
6. Usefulness of Analysis?
Can identify the actual concerns among
stakeholders
Can provide a check on the experts in terms
of top priority problems and perceptions
Can allow projects to take steps to avoid
future problems with the creation of win-win
solutions
