This template can be used for translating your vision into goals in a participatory exercise. It can be completed individually and then as a focus group. 

Results from different focus groups should be compared by the community members involved to seek agreement on joint goals and move forward to later stages of the risk-informed development planning process.

Short-term goals should cover the next few months and for the year, and include things that require immediate attention, be it aspirations, needs or concerns.

Long-term goals should cover the next 1-2 years or longer, depending on the response from the community.

This template tool is taken from our Risk-Informed Development Guide, which provides a comprehensive stage-by-stage approach to working with communities most at risk.
