The formulation of the BSAPP involved a wide process of consultations and interactions among the Project Co-ordinator, Project Manager, the Technical Working Group and its Steering Committee, the various national and international agencies and experts, and the civil society including NGOs, universities and local communities and stakeholders.
The diagram below gives a graphic presentation of the BSAPP process and outputs. The process shown therein is inherently iterative. The analysis of issues, problems and solutions proceeds along with the participatory identification of priorities, the setting up of national initiatives and local partnerships and the implementation of projects – each process element complementing and feeding into the others.
