Assessment

Define your mandate, scope, and boundaries. Gather facts, map stakeholders, identify conflicts, and agree on the visions and strategies that will guide your plan.

Planning

Design the actions needed to meet your goals. Identify resources, build stakeholder support, and establish the right timing and mechanisms for meaningful participation.

Implementation

Put the plan into action. Track progress, allocate resources strategically, and collaborate with key stakeholders to assess what is working and adapt as you go.

Monitoring & Evaluation

Track results, learn from outcomes, and adapt your approach. Close the planning cycle by feeding evidence and lessons back into the next mandate.
