Six main expected benefits and five primary challenges of involving stakeholders in systematic reviews. Benefits included: establishing credibility; anticipating controversy; ensuring transparency and accountability; improving relevance; enhancing quality; and increasing dissemination and uptake of findings. Challenges included: time; training and resources; finding the right people; balancing multiple inputs; and understanding how to match the right type of stakeholder to the right time in the systematic review process

Explanation:

Benefit

Participation by project stakeholders entails sharing a common understanding and being involved in the project's decision-making process. Stakeholder participation leads to empowerment and joint ownership of the project. To increase participation, the project should begin with consultations, progress to negotiations, and conclude with joint decisions. Participation by project stakeholders has numerous benefits and advantages, including:

1. Ensures that project plans reflect the actual needs and priorities

2. Creates a trusting environment by allowing stakeholders' voices to be heard and their issues to be known.

3. Holds the project to account in front of the stakeholders

Accountability of the project to stakeholders

4. Allows stakeholders' voices to be heard, which increases the level of trust in the relationships.

5. Encourages transparency in project actions and ensures that the project is held accountable for its actions.

6. Increases ownership by stakeholders who believe the project is listening to their concerns and motivates them to sponsor the project, which leads to sustainability.

7. It is a critical strategy for gaining project support, gaining commitment to the project, and ultimately increasing the chances of sustainability after the project is completed.

Challenges

• Our city interviews revealed a number of barriers to identifying potential collaboration and making partnerships work. Each of these impediments has the potential to cause opportunities to be overlooked or, once underway, to fall short of their full potential:
• It is difficult to understand the full range of opportunities available within a location - who owns what and where - and to share that knowledge with potential partners in order to capitalise on that opportunity. Some parts of the public sector may be reluctant to disclose all assets publicly if they believe they will lose control over how they are used.
• A project cannot be successfully factored in if it is unclear how it will fit into the city's future economy. Deep knowledge of the local economy and how it is likely to develop in the mid- to long-term is challenging, but important.
• Different organisational cultures—public and private sectors—expose themselves to a greater risk of failure when they depart from their core duties without taking any action to mitigate that risk and track their progress. When it comes to when they can make decisions, when they can anticipate results, and how they gauge the success of those results, different organisations frequently have very different time frames.
• Capacity: Resources are limited, and people might already be working full-time jobs. In order to overcome inertia and realise benefits, collaboration to make the most of assets requires additional dedicated resources.
• Inflexibility – all projects will be impacted by both anticipated and unanticipated events. Collaborations may be overly rigid and brittle and unable to bend with the wind of external shocks and internal developments without a strong institutional relationship supported by strong personal connections between partners.
