ACTIVITY 1:
Who’s around?

STEP I. Mapping Stakeholders

The first step is to identify key stakeholders. The following questions will help inform the mapping process. During this mapping activity, you may want to fill out the survey individually and then work in groups to draw the map of your campus. In this process, you may wish to start with the general (i.e. Service Learning Center), but then get specific and include names and contact information of people on campus (i.e. Sam Grant, Director, 555-555-5555). The more specific you can get, the better, especially as you go out to talk with people.

A “stakeholder” is any person or group that has a real interest (or “stake”) in something.

• Who are key “stakeholders” (on campus and beyond) for increasing student voice and civic engagement opportunities?



• Where is student involvement and action supported (including volunteering, service learning, or political and community work)?



• What student groups are organizing on campus?



• Where do students have voice on campus (i.e. student government, forums on campus, students on advisory committees)? Who are key student leaders?



• What communities and neighborhood organizations can/do students partner with?
