      A.3 Introduction of the Handbook Methodology

      The handbook identifies factors to consider at each stage of a continuous, cyclical process of building and improving dialogue. Taken as a whole, it builds up into a practical toolkit to:

      • diagnose the capacity of the public and private sectors to engage in dialogue and the areas in which dialogue can be most fruitful;
      • design a dialogue process that gives the best chance for productive interactions between public and private sectors to emerge;
      • implement dialogue with an awareness of risk factors that can develop and the ability to identify and address problems as they arise;
      • evaluate the effectiveness of dialogue mechanisms, feeding back into the diagnosis phase for designing and implementing improvements.
