Stakeholder or public participation has become something of a
modern mantra employed in all sorts of contexts to give people a
voice. There are many variants on this 'participation' but
traditionally they all share a desire to maximise involvement and
provide desired 'outputs' of a required quality as quickly and as
cheaply as possible. Difference tends to be reduced and compromise
encouraged as the outputs or even just the appearance of
participation are emphasised. This book explores the large and
diverse range of participatory methods currently in use, examines
the problems and gaps in these methods and sets out an innovative
new methodology which overcomes these shortcomings. Uniquely, this
method builds from the assumption that it is not just the outputs
that matter in participation - it is also the journey. 'Triple
Task' is designed to help groups explore their current situation
and develop a path by which they can improve their functioning and
ultimately make a positive contribution to the lives of others. The
book includes in-depth case studies of Triple Task in action across
a range of contexts and countries, with particular focus on an EU
project concerning indicators in policy-making. This new approach
can be used in any context and with any sort of group to help them
produce more informative 'outputs' in which a deep reflection of
how the group works is allied to an analysis of how problems can be
solved.
