“Stakeholders”  (IRGC,  2005)  

Socially  organised  groups  that  are  or  will  be  affected  by:  •   the  outcome  of  the  event  or  the  acGvity  from  which  the  risk  originates  and/or    

•  the  risk  management  op=ons  taken  to  counter  the  risk.    

 

Other  groups  that  may  also  have  a  role  

•  Scien=fic  communiGes  •  Professional  bodies  •  The  media  •  Cultural  elites  and  opinion  leaders  •  The  non-­‐organised  affected  public  and  the  non-­‐organised  observing  public

Iden=fying  the  stakeholders  (1)  

What  are  the  possible  consequences  in  terms  of  who  will  suffer  what  (damage,  loss,  tangible,  intangible)  where  and  when.      SpaGal  –  temporal  dimensions  /  Uncertainty  

 Knowledge  is  essenGal  for  idenGfying  the  stakeholders.  

 

“…  are  or  will  be  affected  by  the  hazardous  event  or  process  or  ac8vity  from  which  risk  originates…”  

Iden=fying  the  stakeholders  (2)  

“…  are  or  will  be  affected  by  the  risk  management  op8ons”

• Risk  sharing          

Knowledge  is  essenGal  for  idenGfying  the  stakeholders.  

Selec=on  and  inclusion  

•  Who  selects  who  is  included  in  decision  making  and  implementaGon  and  how?    

•  How  urgency  affects  this?  Hierarchical  versus  problem  solving  models  of  emergency  management  

•  Can  one  include  in  stakeholders  also  these  who  are  assigned  with  the  task  to  define  and  propose  policy  opGons  and  these  who  are  in  risk  management  business?  

Decision  making,  policy  making  and  implementa=on  processes:  Issues  to  discuss  

•  Who  plays  a  role,  what  role,  at  what  stage  of  the  process,  how  informaGon  and  knowledge  affects  this  role,  significance  of  the  role  

•  Knowledge  flows  within  the  process:  actors,  sources,  type,  means  and  tools  

•  IntenGons  and  interests  associated  with  using  the  knowledge  

•  Place  of  knowledge  within  the  process  •  Useful,  usable  and  used  knowledge    

•  Bridging  the  gap  between  knowing  and  doing  takes  more  then  knowledge  

•  Explore  a  spectrum  of  tools  to  enable  knowledge  and  focus  on  facilitaGng  the  development/selecGon  of  the  tool/approach  most  appropriate  for  the  specific  case  

•  Use  the  project  itself  as  a  case  to  see  how  an  issue  is  negoGated,  facilitated  and  implemented.
