PhilippinesWhy do reforms fail? Download the materials from this learning event to learn about the ingredients of a succesful reform process.
This learning program aimed to enhance participants’ skills in navigating the reform process by mobilizing multi-stakeholder groups and engaging them in the task of creating pro-reform coalitions. Recognizing that reforms fail when stakeholder interests are not adequately satisfied and differences in beliefs, attitudes, and mindsets are not addressed, the course was designed to help participants recognize political economy issues, differentiate technical from adaptive challenges, and use sound negotiation techniques that utilize the different perspectives of stakeholders to reach a durable agreement.
