For actors in local communities
Actors in local communities may find useful the general SQM concepts and
methods for structuring their debates on local development. With its
strong emphasis on citizens participation, SQM is most helpful for Local Agendas
21. However, be careful not to confront a broad public with the whole analysis
framework. More small guides for the general public are going to be published in
2004.
For simple appraisals of a situation or a project the small free appraisal
tool SQM.appraise may be helpful.
In regions where public authorities have provided SQM.guide for
facilitating the access to public funding programmes, this instrument can be
most useful to local actors: it allows not only to identify appropriate funding
sources but also to make a targeted appraisal of project ideas with regard to
the programme objectives and the dimensions of sustainable development.
Local communities which have detailed own action programmes could use SQM.guide
for making them public - but they would need a consultant to set up the system.
Check the table below and have a look at the corresponding SQM system
components.
