Educational institutions.
Initially few of these people may have any idea what an eco-industrial park
is, therefore educating the community is an important early step. Options for
this enlistment process include networking with key individuals and
organizations; organizing public events with media coverage; conducting
workshops or conferences; and planning activities in local colleges. A
Worldwide Web site for community education and involvement can provide
an overview of the project, means of inputting ideas or questions, and links
to other eco-industrial projects. Whether your team chooses to use a
conference or a series of interviews with stakeholders, the following guiding
questions are important to answer.

3.2.1Assessing resources
Early in the context setting process your EIP project can benefit from an
inventory of resources available at local, state, and national levels. These
may include individuals, organizations, sources of information/data, and
anything else that can support the project. A survey of existing local
resources should address the following questions:
How can existing resources, programs, and development
strategies contribute to EIP development?
What are the resources that we already have in place?
What type of financing is available?

imperative that each one be involved in forming and articulating the vision,
at least through consultations by members of the core team. It will be
important over time to revisit and renew this vision in workshops involving all
current stakeholders.
