Step 1: Stakeholder analysis and identification of beneficiaries

RBM step 1

There are different categories of stakeholders that you could involve in the project’s design. In first instance, the potential beneficiaries of course: these can be local farmers or entrepreneurs; people that make use of medical facilities; villagers; local business people; women; young people; members of minority groups… It all depends on the type of project and the local situation. In addition, you can talk with local authorities, local NGOs, village councils (village elders), ministry delegates and so on.

For each group you can describe:

  • To what categories they belong
  • What their number is
  • What their socio-economic situation is and any other relevant characteristics
  • What their potential is to contribute to a solution for the selected problem(s)
