Is there really a common understanding of multistakeholderism? I don't
think so, and I would further suggest that it will be a good starting
point to acknowledge that currently there are several different
understandings of multistakeholderism, and to therefore start listening
to each other with a goal of learning how others may understand
“multistakeholderism” differently.

Greetings,
Norbert
