Abstract

This REAL DEAL Protocol: Guidance and Toolkit incorporates a validated toolkit comprising various deliberative formats and methodologies, some of which can be employed in combination, that can be utilised by a range of actors involved in policy development related to the European Green Deal. The combinations of formats and methodologies are based on specific topics, timelines, and socio-political conditions and contexts. The Guidance and Toolkit also takes into account legal, ethical, socio-economic, gender, cultural, and governance considerations, prioritising inclusive, diverse, and equitable processes for public, stakeholder and citizen engagement.
