Revision as of 18:58, 12 September 2011

The tasks involved in this phase are

1. Identification of stakeholders

  • It means finding out who are affected by the decisions, and who should therefore be involved.

2. Knowledge gathering and sharing

  • It means e.g. that some participative GIS/KM tools are used for gathering local or expert knowledge and sharing it with other stakeholders.

- Participatory GIS could be used for locating certain (socially, culturally or ecologically) valuable places (e.g. Hytänen et al 2002, Tyrväinen et al. 2007).

- MCA tools could be used for evaluating the effect of a given option of forestry on the criteria and indicators (e.g. Kangas et al. 2000, Mustajoki et al. 2011).

3. Formulating criteria

  • It means e.g. cognitive mapping tools that can be used to clarify the goals the stakeholders have (e.g. Tikkanen et al. 2007)

4. Definition of criteria

  • It means, for instance, that measurable indicators for the criteria are defined (e.g. Mendoza & Prabhu)

5. Eliciting preferences

  • It can mean using MCA tools for evaluating the criteria and indicators (Kangas et al. 2008).
