18. Public-Private Dialogue – Stakeholder mapping toolkit

PPD Public-Private Dialogue is a structured engagement among an inclusive group of relevant and local stakeholders that seeks to identify, prioritise, and recommend consensus as well as fact-based based solutions to a specific need, challenge, or problem. PPDs go well beyond standard stakeholder consultation or a simple exchange of opinion. The Guide has been prepared by the World Bank with the involvement of PPD practitioners to provide them with an option for stakeholder mapping by adapting a Network Mapping (NM) method and allow them to design dialogue platform and determine the participants at the concept stage; promote dialogue, ensure that the right people are invited in the dialogue; facilitate the dialogue among different partners of the dialogue. Three are the steps in stakeholder mapping: identify the purpose of the mapping; doing stakeholder mapping using the NMmethod; stakeholder analysis. The NM method has 6 steps: frame the right question, identify the actors involved; work through the links; determine motivations, discuss levels of influence; harvest observation and possible actions. The document contains also examples of applications.
