Stakeholder Analysis Guidelines

2-4 Policy Toolkit for Strengthening Health Sector Reform
a “neutral” person who has no political or other interest in the policy and who is independent of
the institution promoting the policy. It is also useful to include members who are knowledge-
able about the sector, stakeholders, context, and politics related to the policy.
The stakeholder analysis process should be participatory, involving all members of the work-
ing group from beginning to end. This way, all working group members will be integrated into
the entire process and will gain the experience needed to conduct similar efforts in the future.
Integrating all working group members into the process also will increase their understanding
of and support for the results and help them accurately translate the interview respons es into
analysis results.
It is imp ortant that members of the work ing group a re experienced as interviewers and are
able to elicit answers to the stated questions without imposing their personal biases. If they have
no previous experience, a day or two of training may be required (such a s practice interviewing
through role playing ). The working group m embers also s hould be able to review and accu-
rately synthesize qualitative information. In addition, all members of the group should read
these stakeholder analysis guidelines, receive training on the content of stakeholder analysis,
and understand the reason for undertaking the analysis.
Develop a plan and timeline.
Finally, the working group should identify the specific steps to be taken in conducting the anal-
ysis (following these guidelines) and establish a timeline for the process. The timeline should
include all major steps in the process, up to and including the final presentation of conclusions
to policymakers. Sufficient time should be allocated for setting up interviews and rescheduling
them in case of cancellations.
