medvirkningsplan

Medvirkningsplan is a plan that describes how stakeholders and the public will be involved in a decision process, project, or plan. The aim is to ensure that different perspectives, needs and expertise are considered, and that participation is structured, transparent and timely. A medvirkningsplan is typically used in public sector contexts such as municipal planning, infrastructure projects, environmental impact assessments, and development projects, but can also be applied in research or health service planning.

A medvirkningsplan generally outlines the objectives of participation, the scope of the project, and who should be involved. It specifies the target groups, including residents, interest groups, businesses, and the potentially affected parties, and describes the methods for engagement. Common methods include information meetings, public hearings, workshops, surveys, written consultations, and advisory panels. The plan also sets a timetable with milestones, assigns roles and responsibilities, and allocates resources for participation activities. It describes how input will be collected, processed, and used in decision making, as well as how participants will receive feedback on how their input influenced the outcome. Privacy, data handling, and ethical considerations are typically addressed, along with mechanisms for evaluating the effectiveness of the participation process.

The purpose of medvirkningsplan is to increase the quality and legitimacy of decisions, foster trust, and promote shared ownership of outcomes.
