Then we have outcome-based criteria; these are participations from what we can achieve from the participations what are the outcomes it not necessary that if you follow a particular process an ideal process of participation it not necessary that it would deliver you a good outcome good effective outcome. So then outcome-based criteria we expect that what are the results expected desired results okay.

And what are the mechanism to channel communities demand, reduce delay in difficult decision-making, enhance ownership, build consensus etc and ensure mutual trust, respect, ownership, transparency, accountability, conflict resolution and consensus-building, and cost and time effective.

For the process of public participation we may consider early engagement of the community and representations of. So early engagement of the community it means that community should be involved from the very beginning of the participations. It is not that they will suddenly call for involving in construction process in a build back better situations, but we should first let know that what is the existing problem what are the concerns there what are the prevailing issues there okay.

Community is not a black box there are a lot of differences among themselves some is based on class, based on gender, based on caste, status. So we should ensure, try to ensure that all the representative of all sections should participate into this process.

The third criteria process-based is the clear and agreed objective at the outset. Many cases that we discussed with the community but we do not have any agreed objectives, or maybe we do not have any clear objectives. It is always evolving, so it is better to make very clear objectives.

Okay, it is not that you asked them invited them to participate in the very beginning and then you forgot them. No, you should not forget them you should actually continue consultations with them involving them in every sphere of the planning process.

Fairness is a kind of component that we discussed that we are saying that okay is sometimes people participate but it is just a physical participation they do not have any power or the freedom to express their own opinions.

We should remember that many cases people are invited, people are engaged, but maybe the financial agency the major financial resources that is coming from the external agencies. Community has less contribution financially then what is the case that the external agency they consult with the community they involve them throughout the process, but when they make the decision, when they make the plan there is no reflections of community’s opinions observations and suggestions.

Capacity building means that the community in order to engage with other stakeholders to negotiate with other, to bargain with other, or to involve in discussions critical discussions they should have certain knowledge or skills.

There should be enough skill like face to face and using local language not to widen the scope of the program exercise. These are some of the components we should consider in the facilitation process so it is a kind of art and skill of the facilitator to conduct effectively participatory tools.

Many cases that latent knowledge, tacit knowledge that are important. So we should try to grab that knowledge people experience, people use their experience and their traditional living with the same place that develop a knowledge and that that can even.

Another one is the outcome of public participation, like participation should be successful in terms of implementations.

Transparency and accountability, like that what is the cost of the projects, who are benefiting out of it okay. This kind of things should be very clear. Accountable, what is the distribution what are the roles people are playing.

Mutual trust, that should be achieved through participations, stakeholders should believe among themselves they should be able to resolve conflict, distrust among themselves that would called an ideal participations.

Ownership feeling that when you are achieving when you are finishing some projects, the project is made for the community themselves.

If there is a kind of distrust may not be we always able to reach to an agreed decision but at least one group should know that what are the concerns what are the problems there from another perspective.

Using local knowledge and other natural resources locally available resources and involving people their labour their roles and responsibilities would effectively reduce the cost that would be self-sustainable.

Another one is the time effective that if the project should be finished within a particular time, it should not be too long, should not be too short, so these are the criteria of public participations.
