                                  12:00 - 4:30 pm Eastern

                                  This course introduces a powerful, transparent process to identify and analyze key stakeholders for any engagement project – a critical step in an ethical and equity-centered engagement design. After understanding the theory and purpose, participants use short cases to practice stakeholder mapping. They learn how to identify and analyze the full spectrum of stakeholders, with special emphasis on underrepresented stakeholders who need additional outreach/support to ensure inclusive engagement. For each case, the group learns how to “clean” and finalize the map, and then discusses implementation challenges and how to overcome them.

                                  Learning outcomes:

                                  • Challenge: Design and implement equity-centered engagement processes for increasingly diverse communities 
                                  • Critical to success: Robust and comprehensive stakeholder identification and analysis (“stakeholder mapping”)
                                  • Course combines theory, practice, instructions, templates
                                  • Participants leave ready to conduct thorough, defensible stakeholder mapping that identifies underrepresented stakeholders, and use the results to plan and successfully implement inclusive engagement 

                                    Outline:

                                    • Introduction, overview, and grounding

                                         Fundamentals of Public Participation

                                        First course to be taken before Designing Public Participation and Applying Methods

                                        The Fundamentals of Public Participation (P2) course is a prerequisite to other courses in the Global Learning Pathway that sets out the underpinning models and frameworks of engagement practice as defined by the IAP2 community.

                                        The focus of this course is on understanding and applying the practices of meaningful and effective P2 and what participants need to know to do this well. The training explores best practices, and how to design and apply this knowledge to your P2.

                                        Course objectives

                                        By the end of this course participants will be able to:

                                        • Define P2 and related terms and what makes it unique
                                        • Identify what makes P2 meaningful, and reflect on the benefits, risks and myths related to P2
                                        • Identify the role that values play in P2 work, and the leadership attributes that will serve them in practice 
                                        • Reflect on and apply ethical leadership actions and abilities to P2 situations
                                        • Apply the Profiles of P2 model to P2, and explore organization- and community-led engagement and how that impacts the engagement process
                                        • Reflect on and apply the principles of diversity, equity and inclusion, and explore the roles and impacts of power and influence
                                        • Apply the IAP2 Spectrum to P2 situations and practice
