Doughnut impact assessment for development project

An interactive workshop to reflect on the impact of development project on the doughnut’s dimensions

Presentation of the tool 


This doughnut tool is a interactive-workshop tool whose objective is to bring stakeholders from a local authority (elected officials, agents, residents, etc.) to reflect on the impacts of development projects on the doughnut and on possible avenues for improvement to integrate the safe and just space. It is a tool designed for ex-ante use, when projects can still branch off but the broad outlines have been defined. This tool should be used in tables of around ten participants, each led by a facilitator

 

Workshop procedure


This workshop is divided into 4 key stages : 

- Identifying the basic needs met by the project ;

- Identifying the social impacts of the project on the social foundation ;
