Context Mapping Phase 1 Update Sarah Skerratt, SAC
Outline of presentation • Aim of context mapping • Process • Where we are now • Update so far, focusing on: • Similarities • Differences • Discussion
Aim of context mapping • Identify which bits of your context are impacting on O4O enterprises • Pull these together, so we can see what is similar and what is different in each country • At the end of the project, see which bits of context need to change so that O4O-type enterprises can survive
Process – how are we doing it? • 2 parts: • (i) context maps that you have been doing • (ii) phone interviews with you every 6 months of the project, to address specific points and questions • Synthesis of Reports and interviews • Picking out key issues
Where we are now… • You have all finished Phase 1 of the context maps (focusing on O4O, enterprises etc) • Some of you have finished Phase 2 (more detailed descriptions of policy landscape) • All the first phone interviews (except one) have been completed THANK YOU!!
