Frequently asked questions

Questions before defining the scope.

Which decisions does a social diagnosis inform?

It can inform investment, project design, territorial entry, engagement, mitigation, resource allocation, and monitoring priorities.

Is a diagnosis only a survey?

No. It integrates documentary sources, stakeholders, context, perceptions, risks, and management capacity. Methods are selected according to scope and decision.

Does it include fieldwork?

It can when the territory, access, stage, and exposure level require it. Scope is defined before information is collected.
