The broad range of actors and stakeholders involved in the MATILDE project includes practitioners with varying backgrounds, researchers from different disciplines and NGO’s, political decision-makers, public administrations and even private businesses on different territorial levels, and therefore implies the need for coordination. This stakeholder involvement plan is divided into two parts, of which the first is the plan as described in the project proposal and the second is a "living document", which will be extended throughout the project duration. The goal of the first part of the stakeholder involvement plan (Deliverable 2.8) is to guarantee the active and timely participation of stakeholders at different levels (e.g. EU, national, regional, provincial and local). It should serve as a guidance and support the project partners in order to better navigate the overall process of engaging interest groups and to describe both theoretical and practical foundations and thus create a common understanding for all actors involved. This part of planning details the types of stakeholders, the anticipated level of participation and affiliation of involvements to work packages in order to establish a temporal connection to ensure that stakeholders are addressed with an adequate method and through appropriate channels. The second part, the "living document", forms the basis of a continuous exchange between the MATILDE partners with regard to their work with stakeholders and was designed to better correspond to the reality of project work, which is inherently subject to constant change. It should offer the opportunity to reflect on the specific project needs and respective work processes, to elaborate on lessons learned and to jointly discuss acquired knowledge. It is considered as a chance to gain insights on how cooperation within EU projects as well as stakeholder involvement takes place, which participation methods are suitable for respective stakeholder groups and future projects. This part of the stakeholder plan will be a possibility to discover potentials of stakeholder engagement and to benefit from the experiences and points of partners views with various backgrounds from different countries, all working towards the same goal. In this way, networks such as think tanks with various kinds of stakeholders can be created that will last beyond the duration of the project and can make a sustainable contribution to initiating positive changes. |
