The TCR missed the opportunity to reflect on lessons regarding stakeholder participation. The TCR could have shared specific lesson from its engagement with various stakeholders from the government and the local business sectors. As the outcome statement involved two dimensions of planning and implementing poverty reduction measures, it would be useful if there are knowledge dissemination activities designed based on the roles played by the stakeholders, e.g., planning or implementation, as this would enable stakeholders to strengthen either the planning or the implementation capacity. This could complement the wider stakeholder training or workshops conducted, which involved multiple stakeholders from across government, key tourism players in each of the counties, the local community, as well as women.
