Development actors are operational at local, district, national, international and transnational (global) levels. At each of these levels actors can be from the public (government) sector, private (business) sector or from civil society (ordinary citizens). It is common to refer to the different groups of actors as stakeholders and for interactions between them to be called multistakeholder meetings. These offer huge challenges in terms of communication and consensus building.
