Project Preparation: Stakeholders

Implementers

· Community Groups: These stakeholders refer to community-based organizations that strive to create improvements to the overall functioning, wellbeing, and health of a community. These stakeholders can be implementers in the humanitarian aid trip because they will have first-hand knowledge on the prevalence of the problem and help in prioritizing the areas to target and how to best help the affected individuals.

· Local Health Institutions: These stakeholders refer to the healthcare facilities in the target area. These stakeholders will facilitate provision of medical services in the humanitarian aid trip through their infrastructure and human resources.

Decision Makers

· Local Government: This stakeholder has the overall authority to determine and execute policies within the target area based on established laws. This stakeholder will decide if the humanitarian aid trip is beneficial to its people and provide wholesome assistance such as security and infrastructure required by the aid workers (Fathalikhani, Hafezalkotob, & Soltani, 2020).

· Investors: These stakeholders fund the humanitarian aid trip. They will have a say into how funds and resources are spent with regard to meeting the objectives of the humanitarian aid trip.

Participants

· Target Population: This is comprised of the individuals who are directly impacted y the problem the humanitarian aid is trying to solve. The population will have to embrace the humanitarian aid’s efforts by adopting any healthcare measures required to reverse the negative effects of the health crisis.

· Media: This refers to the communication outlets comprised of social media and mainstream media such as television, radio, and print. Such stakeholders will help in the education and sensitization of the masses with regard to the efforts of the humanitarian aid group and the likely benefits of the same (Ogbodo et al., 2020).

Partners

· Charities: These are the organizations that raise money and offer help to individuals in need. They can help fund the activities of the humanitarian aid group and ensure the group has a reasonable number of resources to achieve its objectives.

· Non-Governmental Organizations: These are critical change agents that facilitate the promotion of human rights, economic growth, and social progress (Aras & Duman, 2019). Through their infrastructure and reach, these stakeholders can help support the activities of the humanitarian aid efforts through the provision of resources and ideas.
