- description:
- Lesson 3: Clarity of data in terms of numbers and qualitative back up (as presented in illustrations and case stories) was important in gathering and sharing critical ideas on social economy. The crucial tools for gathering the data were RSVP for events, Surveys at consultations and M&E forms. This enabled the creation of a data base that informed the processes in terms of who the stakeholders in the social economy are and their contribution and how they can be mobilised and reached to contribute ideas to social and solidarity policy project consultative processes.
- administrative_issues:
- Requires the will of the key stakeholders to appreciate that accurate data forms a backbone to the success of the project processes and realization of results. Meticulous design for the learning process is critical to ensure key and important good practices in the research are well documented. The implementation should be continuous to capture emerging issues such as challenges and negate them in a timely manner.
