Stakeholder analysis
• Identification of all stakeholders involved– stakeholders which may be affected by the problem or
the project are identified
• Categorization of the stakeholders– all relevant stakeholders are categorized according to
criteria relevant for the specific project (active, beneficiaries, affected, supporters, opponents)
• Detailed analysis of selected stakeholders– more detailed analysis of selected stakeholders
(characteristics, relations, interest, power)
Categorization of stakeholders
• Key stakeholder– Those who can significantly influence or are
important to the success of an activity
• Primary stakeholder– Those individuals and groups who are ultimately
affected by an activity, either as beneficiaries (positively impacted) or those adversely impacted
• Secondary stakeholder– All other individuals or institutions with a stake,
interest or intermediary role in the activity

Maintain and improve their means of livelihood, PHL are affecting their income and therefore possible future benefits.
High interest of minimizing PHL. Weak capacity to bring about change.
Implementing better sanitary practices on board vessels. Shortening fishing trips.Increased use of clean ice.Introducing the use of insulated boxes/containers for fish.

PHL are having direct impact on their income.
Highly interested in reducing PHL Lack of financial and technical capacity to bring about significant changes.
Influence boat designers to improve design, reinvest in more suitable vessels, control the length of fishing trips, introduce better onboard fish handling, raise awareness on fish quality and address ways to lengthen shelf life of fresh fish that could in

D
Shows stakeholders of high importance to the activity, but with low influence.
They require special initiatives if their interests are to be met
Shows stakeholders of high importance to the activity who can also significantly influence its success. Managers will need to develop good working relationship with these stakeholders to ensure an effective coalition of support for the activity
Shows stakeholders who are of low priority but may need limited monitoring
They are unlikely to be the focus of the activity
Shows stakeholders with high influence, who can affect outcome of the activity, but whose interest are not the target of the activity
These stakeholders may be able to block the activity and therefore constitute a killer risk
Importance / Influence matrix
• Those included in Boxes A, B and D are the main stakeholders in the activity – They can significantly influence it or are the most
important stakeholders if the activities/objectives are to be met
• Stakeholders in box C are low priority but may need limited monitoring
