Stakeholder Engagement Plan (SEP)
The Stakeholder Engagement Plans (SEP) of projects funded under the WALD Innovation Facility demonstrate how Grantees will continue to engage relevant stakeholders throughout the Project Implementation phase. The SEPs are planning tools that establish actions for each stakeholder group, roles and responsibilities for implementing them; their timing, required resources/budget and, where applicable, capacity-building to support this engagement.
As such, the SEPs will be updated and made available on this website on a regular basis as new stakeholders might emerge during project implementation, necessitating additional engagement.
