Decision facilitator

Decision Facilitator is used to work through decisions in meetings, and where prioritisation of criteria needs to be developed quickly by consensus.  Facilitator is a generic, multiple objective decision support tool for prioritising natural resource management options using decision criteria and a weighting scheme. Management options and decision criteria are defined using participatory processes with stakeholders, and the impacts of each management option are scored using measured data, simulation models and expert opinions. Criteria are defined to account for environmental, economic, social, cultural and legislative considerations.
