2.1.4 Step 4: Development and implementation of a joint strategy

Once the different entry points and occasions for participation in the national PRS have been identified, the organisations concerned need to develop a joint strategy on important issues, problems and messages and to agree on the different roles and responsibilities linked to this strategy. Issues include a strategy on how they can organise themselves more effectively in order to

• influence PRS decision-makers,
• participate actively in the process,
• involve more allies,
• conduct particular analyses,
• provide specific advice,
• develop capacity, and
• implement projects.

Any follow-up requires a specific framework, such as a network, a forum, a way of agreeing on regular meetings, or a news exchange mechanism, such as an email distribution list. The defined strategy will also need to be adjusted from time to time.
