Community Stakeholder Checklist
The Community Stakeholder Checklist is a set of questions that can be used by community stakeholders to evaluate a research team’s compliance with the Good Participatory Practice guidelines. The checklist can be used as a starting point for dialogue with a research team, a way to share experiences with other stakeholders or as an assessment tool.
GPP Strengths and Gaps

It guides members of the research team through the process of conducting a one-on-one interview with a stakeholder. The tool provides guidance for talking with many different types of stakeholders. It can be used to evaluate the impact of stakeholder engagement efforts.
GPP Summary Sheets
The GPP Summary Sheets offer an at-a-glance look at the GPP guidelines for individuals who may not be primarily responsible for implementing GPP, but who need to understand them. They are organized according to the stages of the trial life cycle: planning, trial conduct and post-trial. Each stage outlines GPP topic areas, highlights key practices, and lists considerations for various stakeholders.
GPP Listing, Scoring, Ranking
This nine-page tool is a facilitator’s guide for an exercise developed by the site staff of the Microbicide Development Program in Tanzania. The activity can be used to engage community members, trial participants or staff members. It uses various participatory approaches to encourage participants to share their issues and concerns, debate amongst themselves and identify priority actions for the research site. This is designed as a companion tool to the GPP Blueprint, a comprehensive guide for developing a stakeholder engagement plan.
