Preference-based prioritisation tool

Rationale of use

In Lithuania, a preference-based prioritisation tool was used in a participatory manner to prioritise needs, involving a broad range of stakeholders and regional authorities.

Functioning

The tool is applied during the SP design phase to set priorities among identified needs, stakeholders, and objectives. Guided by SWOT analysis results, stakeholders allocate votes to rank needs systematically, ensuring a transparent and democratic prioritisation process that focuses on the most critical aspects.

Types of outputs

The tool results in clear documentation of prioritised needs and intervention settings, providing structured guidance for policy formulation.
