Session 1 Why participatory planning?
Advantages of participatory planning • Brings everyone on board and builds support for the plan • Creates commitments and willingness to act among different players • Brings viewpoint and ideas – not only data
Disadvantages/ risks • Perceptions and viewpoints only • High expectations and no follow up • Forget to include main players • Uneasiness among some of the players • No link between the one who speaks and the one whose behalf he speaks
`Planning is: • Bringing everyone on the same platform • IT IS NOT: calculating the best decision
