In this session we aim to help you understand a wide range of potential stakeholders and beneficiaries of research, and practise a stakeholder mapping method around your chosen topic in a collaborative and interactive environment. The session will start with the background of stakeholder mapping. You will then explore and consolidate your understanding in a small group setting. There is an opportunity to start developing your own stakeholder map and to receive feedback from your peers and the facilitators. Lunch will be provided for those attending in person.
