Participatory project development

One of my specialities is working creatively with large multi-stakeholder groups to develop a project or other initiative, intended to transform the lives of women, men and children, and their communities.

I facilitate a participatory process which:

empowers individuals and stakeholder groups
encourages equality, accountability and transparency
challenges unrealistic expectations
shares knowledge
ensures an integrated approach to project planning
captures relevant result, outcome and impact indicators
develops a sense of stakeholder ownership
supports collective management strategies

Example:

Taking the metaphor of the ‘cooking pot’ I use group process methodology to draw out the ‘ingredients’ that each and every stakeholder – individual or group – contributes to the collective whole.

HOW I WORK

Participation, process, consultation and inclusion are qualities embedded in all the work I undertake.
