O6.2 Understand the needs of affected communities and test the impact of DPI on these groups

Practices

• Engage directly with vulnerable communities by organizing focus group discussions (FGDs) and interviews with vulnerable communities, such as women’s groups, climate-affected communities, and other marginalized groups, to understand their specific needs and concerns related to DPI.

• Hold consultations with local and national CSOs that represent or work with these communities to gather insights and ensure their voices are considered in the development and implementation of DPI.

• Implement pilot projects in collaboration with these communities to test how DPI systems affect them, making adjustments based on feedback.
