The method defines the expected outcomes, that is to say the messages and the content to be conveyed as part of the [Stakeholder engagement](https://www.bilancarbone-methode.com/methode-bilan-carbone-r-en/3-stakeholder-engagement).

Some [resources](https://www.bilancarbone-methode.com/methode-bilan-carbone-r-en/appendices/appendices/appendix-9-resources-for-stakeholder-engagement) are proposed in the annex to provide a few inspiring examples.
