- Strategic communication among all parties involved and a clear leadership role.
- Be clear about the role of each actor in the different phases of the implementation of the solution.
- Be clear about the role of governmental institutions, as they are of great importance for the development and validation of the information presented in the tool.
- Take into account the progress made by other actors and new trends, even if they are not directly part of the project. For urban planning and ecological restoration, it is useful to think beyond political-administrative boundaries.
- It is of utmost importance that each actor has a clear role in the project and in each of its stages (development, implementation and maintenance) and that there are agreements for follow-up.
- It is favorable to have an enabling legal framework defined, which facilitates and promotes the actions of the actors, especially governmental, so that they have the duty to generate and use such tools.
