Define

The ‘define’ phase is essentially about scoping out the core challenge(s) that are to be addressed and identifying core principles and rationale for a portfolio-based intervention strategy. In order to define possible governance experiments, in this phase it is important to outline possible, ‘overall transition’ scenarios, and map out core actors and sectors that may be addressed, as well as specific levers that may be taken into account - e.g. regulation, financial incentives, citizen engagement, etc.

Keywords in this phase

• Scenario-ing and Visioning

• Challenge(s) scoping

• Convergence

• Sense making

• Project development and management
