2.1: Purpose of Stakeholder Engagement: Stakeholder Engagement in this Course and in NRM Generally (WEL)

Topic 2.1 Purpose of Stakeholder Engagement

This topic will deal with why do we do stakeholder engagement work. Sometimes we work with (other) scientists, managers, developers or government in a process that engages stakeholders and we need to support that process; and sometimes stakeholder engagement is the start of a deeper learning process that we will be facilitating. Thus, stakeholder engagement is a critical component of natural resource management.
