MAPPING STAKEHOLDERS
- It’s highly influenced by the people present when completing the exercise.
- It’s static, not accessible anywhere, anytime and limited in precision.
- Finding stakeholders for research that has no clear beneficial impacts (or even negative impacts);
- Identifying stakeholders who are sufficiently interested in very nuanced or fine grained research findings;
- Exploring entirely unknown stakeholders for new research projects;
- Sourcing relevant stakeholders for older or newly reopened projects, and finding ways of re-engaging with them;
- Utilizing networks of stakeholders from failed research proposals and carrying over relevant contacts to larger projects or re-developed research proposals;
- Connecting different levels of stakeholders to form a coherent engagement plan. For example, by connecting the local to the global;
- Drawing together very disparate or non-traditional groupings of stakeholders;
- Mapping stakeholders in an environment or context that is not receptive to evidence or openly oppressive of the discourse that the research is communicating;
- Mapping stakeholders of research with direct government funding or research outcomes which conflict with funders’ interests;
- Distilling stakeholders from highly collaborative or complex research projects.
