Stakeholder and Power Mapping template & workshop outline
Tool/ResourceDate added: 17/08/2022
A tool to help you understand who is important to involve in planning and delivering local climate resilience and adaptation actions.
Places, communities, and organisations cannot adapt in isolation; it requires the involvement of different individuals and institutions. Building climate resilience is a process that needs collaboration at different scales, so it is useful to map out who needs to be involved. This tool can help:
- Identify potential stakeholders (groups, networks, projects, underrepresented groups) to involve
- ‘Power map’ stakeholders (identify their levels of knowledge/influence) and the links between them.
- Prioritise those groups or networks that could potentially have the greatest reach, or that are particularly important to involve
The tool is for anyone who is beginning to work on climate change adaptation in their place and wants to understand who they should involve. This tool will also be helpful for groups that have been engaged in local climate action and want to re-evaluate who they are engaging with. You may wish to use it alongside some of our other new adaptation Tools and Resources too!
