01In brief

The short answer.

Organize is step four of the eight-step Nexus cycle: the step at which communities, chapters, councils and national cells are organized around the work. It is owned by the communities, chapters, councils and national cells of the Nexus Ecosystem. At this step GRF runs the leadership councils and institutional dialogues, and the decision at the end of the cycle stays with the competent authority.

04Stakeholder mapping

Inviting by dependency, not by prominence.

Organising a dialogue starts from the system, not from a guest list. Facilitators trace who holds authority over each part of the question, who operates the system, who is exposed to the consequences and who holds evidence, and then check each category for missing voices. Power-interest grids are useful but tend to under-invite those with low formal power and high exposure, so GRF adds an explicit check for affected communities and smaller institutions.
