Stakeholder consultations play a significant role in legitimizing the balance of participants, the quality of the process, and its effective results. This study proposes a deliberative digital stakeholder consultation methodology based on an appreciative inquiry approach to materiality assessment. It demonstrates the application of this methodology in a four-month consultation for the European Commission. Through an interactive online consultation due to COVID-19, dynamism and co-creation were facilitated. The appreciative inquiry approach introduced a sense of ownership and legitimacy, contributing to policy development.
Stakeholder consultations serve as powerful legitimising devices upon the balance of partici-pants, the quality of the process and its effective results. We propose a deliberative digital stakeholder consultation methodology based on an appreciative inquiry approach to material -ity assessment. We illustrate its application in a four-month consultation for the European Commission (2020 European Tourism Convention, towards a European Agenda for Tourism 2050). An interactive, online consultation (due to COVID-19) enabled dynamism and co-creation. Appreciative enquiry introduced the human elements of ownership and legitimacy towards policy. The choice of topics, language and attitudes reframed problems into opportuni-ties with shared responsibilities. Technology allowed to explore new forms of open, democratic and inclusive engagement, and materiality provided structure and transparency that legitimised the process.(c) 2022 Elsevier Ltd.
