Stakeholder training Workshop Czech Republic

We received a generally positive feedback: “interesting and important tool and project”; “Very robust tool”; “this tool is very nice and useful” … They liked the idea of the toolbox being an interactive platform.

Throughout the workshop, a few issues and questions were raised concerning both the usability and the functionality of the toolbox. For example, they asked if the tool considers the possible interactions between “Field of Actions” (FoAs) and between localities: “How a measure in one sector affects other sectors? Did you take into account the possibility that one measure in one FoA (or locality) can have a negative impact on other FoAs (or localities)? People should use measures with caution”. They also raised the issue of: “Who can post something and who will have access to the tool? Will there be different levels of access? Can people propose new measures? What will be the professional level of the platform?”. Someone else asked if there is or if it would be possible to add an interaction between climatic scenarios and measures proposed. And finally, they wondered if the toolbox can also be used privately among one or a few institutions.

On the downside, we had difficulties engaging the stakeholders. Our lack of understanding of the topic made it hard for us to have proper discussions.
