Guidelines for Stakeholders
Participation in Strategic Environmental Management

Environmental ministers take the lead in policy making, but very little can be achieved without the involvement of key stakeholders. This publication outlines the three key principles of Strategic Environmental Management: having a long-term view, having a clear definition of the objectives and ensuring shared responsibility. Next, it looks at the importance of participation or involvement by stakeholders. Whether they are individuals or institutions, inside or outside government they are instrumental to achieve the overall environmental objectives. This title provides useful tips for identifying who the key stakeholders are, how to create stakeholder contact networks and how to present your proposed policy with an edge towards acceptance by using the media and other public forums to your advantage.
