Some recognition of these specific challenges in developing involvement for adaptation to climate change can be seen in the identified success factors for involvement. For example, the suggestions to build capacity at the beginning to enable a good comprehension of stakes and to deal openly with uncertainties may help to overcome some stumbling blocks. The co-creation of programmes and the provisioning of scientific findings in an appropriate form for different stakeholders are also likely to help in dealing with the challenges of involvement in developing and implementing adaptation policies. The emphasis on selecting stakeholders may also be an important precondition for successful involvement. It is one way of avoiding the risk of overly managed forms of inclusion that attempt to involve large groups but which in the end fail to satisfy most (Few et al., 2007). For selected groups the limitations of involvement can be made explicit from the outset, which helps to manage expectations.
