During the formative research phase of the EatSafe program in Ethiopia, several research and field activities identified and gauged stakeholders' interests in food safety at local and national levels. The resulting reports included a a stakeholder mapping exercise to categorize stakeholders based on their interest in the program and their influence in food safety (left), and two reports on the engagement with stakeholders (below).
In the reports below, EatSafe defined a stakeholder as any person, organization or social group that has a stake or vital interest in the business of food and its safety. Stakeholders can be categorized based on the functional involvements or their motive of interest such as being customers, employees, investors, suppliers and vendors, communities, and the government. Stakeholders can be "food safety champions," having high influence to improve food safety in Ethiopia.
