Important announcement

Dear visitor,

Please note that this OpenCourseWare platform will be replaced at the end of 2026 by a new platform (under the same url ocw.tudelft.nl).

Courses and their contents that are currently available the platform will partly be migrated. URL’s for this content will change and content might be unavailable for some time. In addition, some courses will not be available anymore.

If you are linking to specific courses on this platform (for instance for your students), please take timely measures to avoid problems with access. Possible actions are:

  • Download the materials to your local platform (laptop, server)
  • For educators only (including TU Delft lecturers): Contact us at ocw@tudelft.nl and inform us what course you are using in what context (institute, program, period of use, number of students). We will research (in collaboration with the authors of the course) and decide if we will migrate the course, and if yes, can supply you with a new url.

Thank you.

5.2.2 Stakeholder engagement

Course subject(s) Module 5. Stakeholder Engagement

There is a wealth of literature on how to conduct stakeholder engagement.

But in this section, we will focus in a nutshell on some overarching principles for stakeholder engagement within the context of complex problems and co-creation.

  • We will start with the starting points for building trust
  • Then we will discuss normative, social, and substantive principles.

Note:

  • There is no blueprint for stakeholder engagement!
  • The readings will provide you with more information.

Trust!!

Key for stakeholder engagement is trust. Without trust, the process will fail.

The next picture shows the 3 building blocks for trust:
