STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT
At Poroman, we understand the pivotal role that effective stakeholder engagement plays in the success of development projects, resource extraction initiatives, and corporate operations in Papua New Guinea. Our Community Affairs Stakeholder Engagement Consulting Service is designed to assist clients in navigating the complex landscape of community relations, fostering positive relationships with diverse stakeholders, and mitigating risks associated with social and environmental impacts.
Stakeholder Mapping and Analysis
We begin by conducting a comprehensive analysis to identify and prioritise key stakeholders relevant to the client's project or operations. This includes traditional landowners, local communities, government agencies, non-governmental organisations (NGOs), industry associations, and other interested parties. Through stakeholder mapping, we assess the interests, concerns, and influence of each stakeholder group, enabling our clients to tailor their engagement strategies effectively.
ENGAGEMENT STRATEGY DEVELOPMENT
Based on the stakeholder analysis, we collaborate with clients to develop a tailored engagement strategy that aligns with project objectives, regulatory requirements, and international best practices. Our team assists clients in defining clear communication channels, establishing mechanisms for meaningful participation, and setting objectives for stakeholder engagement activities.
Our consultants employ culturally sensitive approaches and communication methods to facilitate dialogue, build trust, and foster consensus on key issues.
MONITORING AND EVALUATION
Throughout the engagement process, we conduct monitoring and evaluation to assess the effectiveness of stakeholder engagement activities and identify areas for improvement.
Our consultants work closely with clients to track progress, measure outcomes, and incorporate feedback into ongoing engagement strategies.
COMPLIANCE AND REPORTING
We support clients in meeting regulatory requirements and industry standards related to stakeholder engagement, including the development of stakeholder engagement plans and social impact assessments. Our team assists clients in preparing comprehensive reports and documentation to demonstrate compliance and transparency in stakeholder engagement efforts.
