Participatory approach in development.pptxKechaTaye
Community participation is about ensuring meaningful engagement with our communities.
For Watershed development promotion to work well, it must be carried out by and with people, not on or to people.
This means that at all stages of the Watershed development intervention, communities are involved with and retain ownership of any Watershed development action.
The failure of researchers to link evidence to policy and practice produces evidence that no one uses, impedes innovation, and leads to mediocre or even detrimental development policies. To help improve the definition, design, and implementation of policy research, researchers should adopt a strategic outcome-oriented approach.
Politics relates to the ways people gain and use power in organizations. Political activities in an organization are inevitable and managers should manage them carefully.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

How to Create Map Views in the Odoo 17 ERPCeline George
The map views are useful for providing a geographical representation of data. They allow users to visualize and analyze the data in a more intuitive manner.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

or concern about a proposed action.
• Anyone who may impact or be impacted by an
organization’s actions, objectives or policies.
*An action can include a policy, project, plan, program or procedure.

immediately affected, positively or negatively,
by an action.
• Secondary stakeholder – someone indirectly
or gradually affected, positively or negatively,
by an action.
• Key stakeholders – have significant influence
upon or importance within an organization.
(They can belong to the first two groups.)
5. Stakeholder Engagement

degree of influence stakeholders have in decision
making.
• The formal and informal ways of staying
connected to the parties who have an actual or
potential interest in, or can affect an action.
• The process of building long-term, collaborative,
mutually beneficial relationships.
• A form of participatory decision making.
6. Spectrum of Engagement/Participation

information to assist
with understanding the
problem, alternatives,
opportunities, and/or
solutions.

9. History of Stakeholder Engagement
• Modern stakeholder thinking arose in the 1930s in the midst of legal
debate about the responsibilities of corporations to their stockholders and
other constituencies.
• As health, safety, environment and community relations evolved, other
stakeholders groups were included.
• The Stanford Research Institute is often credited with first using the
modern definition of stakeholder in the 1960s.
• The concept was fused with management thinking in the 1980s with the
publication of Strategic Management: A Stakeholder Approach, R. Edward
Freeman (1984).
• In the 1990s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and sustainability were
receiving more attention from the general public and corporations.
• From 2000 onward there has been a gradual recognition of the distinction
between stakeholder management/responsibility and stakeholder
responsiveness/building relationships.
10. A Plan, a Process, or an Approach
• An engagement plan can
- refer to the “communications” plans that
support a stakeholder process;
- entail a plan, do, check, and act model.
• An engagement process can flow from a
stakeholder plan; engagement plans can flow
from an engagement process.
• An engagement approach can refer to the
engagement plan and process.
12. Rationale for Stakeholder Engagement
• public expectations
• regulatory requirements
• history of engaging stakeholders
• stakeholder management or stakeholder
responsiveness (relationship building)
13. Desired Outcomes
• Desired outcomes are the overall aims of an
engagement process.
• Outcomes are more specific than “purpose”
and are a clear statement of exactly what is
sought from a process.
14. Stakeholder Identification
• Who has an interest in the current situation?
• Who has history with the current situation,
e.g., based on locality, type of action, or the
roots of a conflict?
• Who can influence the outcome?
• Who has not been identified?
15. Stakeholder Identification (cont’d)
• Brainstorm on an initial list.
• Collect names from people who are active in
the community of interest.
• Consult with organizations that have been
involved with similar efforts or who work with
the population in the area of concern.
• Solicit further ideas from stakeholders who
have been identified.
16. Stakeholder Mapping
• Determine the relationship between
stakeholders.
• Determine the strength of each relationship
and its basis, e.g., historical, geographic.
• Determine whether there are groups with
similar or overlapping interests.
17. Stakeholder Mapping (cont’d)
• Primary care
providers
• Health and human
service
organizations
• Community
volunteers/activists
• Policy makers and
agencies
Advocacy
groups
People at
risk
Residents of
a particular
geographic
area.
A population
defined by
race or
ethnicity.
19. Stakeholder Mapping (cont’d)
Power, Legitimacy and Urgency
• Latent stakeholders (groups 1,2,& 3) subdivided
into dormant, discretionary or demanding
stakeholders.
• Expectant stakeholders (groups 4,5,& 6)
subdivided into dominant, dangerous or
dependent stakeholders.
• Definitive stakeholders (group 7) have all three
characteristics and often take the most attention.
20. Stakeholder Analysis
A process of systematically gathering and
analyzing qualitative information to determine
whose interests should be taken into account
when
- developing and/or implementing a policy,
project, plan, program or procedure
- attempting to build relationships absent a
proposed action
21. Community Profiles
• Community profiles provide a summary of the
history, present conditions, and anticipated
future of an area/situation.
• Community profiles typically include population
demographics, economic and social history,
existing amenities and facilities, recent changes
and future plans.
• For stakeholder engagement with an
international focus population demographics and
economic and social history are the most
important aspects.
22. Value-Focused Thinking
Values-focused thinking
• defining and structuring fundamental values
in terms of objectives and using the objectives
to guide and integrate decision making
• making decisions in relation to objectives that
derive from stakeholder values
• contrasts with alternative-focused thinking
23. Value-focused Thinking (cont’d)
Criteria used to evaluate
people, behavior, experiences
and objects
Reflected in attitudes, beliefs,
feelings and perceptions and as
such form a critical component
of the decisions we make
Can be endemic, found across
cultures, or embedded within a
particular culture.
Principles used for evaluation
that help with choosing among
various possible goals.
Values
27. Stakeholder Analysis (cont’d)
• Delineate a geographic sphere of influence.
• Delineate impact zones where different types
of environmental and social impacts may
occur.
• Note those groups who will be most directly
affected within the impact area.
• Include in the analysis groups and
organizations not adversely affected but
whose interests define them as stakeholders.
28. Interest/Issues Identification
• Interest/issues identification often occurs in
concert with stakeholder analysis.
• Interests and issues are most readily identified
by asking stakeholders:
– What is important to you?
– Why is this important?
29. The Stakeholder Engagement Strategy
• Prioritize who needs to be contacted and the
method(s) of contact.
• Detail the schedule of activities and the
decision making process.
• Identify aspects integral to the strategy:
– the need for a Terms of Reference
– the inclusion of a Chair, facilitators(s) and/or
mediator
– representativeness of stakeholders
30. Requirements to Engage
• The Ontario Electricity Act (1998), Sec. 13.2
specifies requirements for stakeholder input.
• Guidelines for federal officials to fulfill the
duty to consult and accommodate Aboriginal
interests.
• The International Labour Organization (ILO)
169 on Indigenous and Tribal People outlines
consultation requirements.
31. Enabling Conditions for Stakeholder
Engagement
A successful stakeholder engagement process is
helped along when the parties
• possess a cultural affinity
• recognize each other’s legitimacy
• dedicate time to building trust
• are willing to accept incremental gains
32. Enabling Conditions (cont’d)
• There exists the motivation of all parties to
engage one another in dialogue.
• There is articulated and agreed upon
existence of a goal(s) that can only be
accomplished through the participation of all
parties.
• Representatives of each party must have the
internal organizational capacity to act.
33. International Standards for Reporting
on Stakeholder Engagement
In recent years, international reporting standards
for business have begun to include requirements
for reporting on stakeholder activities and
performance.
• Dow Jones Sustainability Index (DJSI) – sets
standards for corporate governance and
stakeholder engagement including corporate
codes of conduct and public reporting.
• FTSE4Good Index Series – a series of benchmark
indices for socially responsible investors.
34. International Standards for Reporting
on Stakeholder Engagement (cont’d)
• UN Global Compact – commits signatory companies to
support and respect the protection of internationally
recognized human rights and make sure they are not
complicit in human rights abuses.
• Credit 360 – a web based data management system
that facilitates data collection and aggregation for
reporting and communication purposes.
• REACT – an online record of research, engagement and
consultation exercises undertaken by local authorities
across a district.
35. Concluding Comments
• At its best, stakeholder engagement enables
cooperation and collaboration.
• The timing for stakeholder engagement
depends on the situation and the availability
of information.
• Stakeholder engagement is often undertaken
to help avoid or resolve conflict, yet, conflict
can raise awareness and function as an
important check on a situation.
36. Concluding Comments (cont’d)
• Power imbalances go hand in hand with
stakeholder engagement.
• The conclusion of a stakeholder engagement
strategy does not always signal the end of a
conflict/dispute.
