1) Conducting research on existing conditions, services, contextual issues, and other factors.
2) Engaging in consultation with stakeholders such as the church, community, authorities and consultants.
3) Holding workshops to bring together research, consultation and stakeholder ideas and aspirations to formulate a direction for the project.
