Gabor Petri – Hungarian Autistic Society Ljubljana, 14 May 2010.
Why do we need a strategy for planning?
We have many problems with public services, butWHO knows WHAT to do?
a) The Ministry?b) The NGO-s?c) The families (parents)?
WHO tells us HOW to do it, how to change public services?a) The Ministry?b) The NGO-s?c) The families (parents)?
What happens if you don’t have a strategy?Many options:
1. Nothing happens. Things stay the same.
2. Different stakeholders act differently – they fight for their own resources.
3. Governments doesn’t have to follow a schedule/plan (=strategy)
Why do we need a strategy?Disadvantages:- Takes time to launch real projects – first you have to
deal with detailed planning to make a strategy- Needs money – experts will only work for money…- Needs lobbying – you ought to have legal frame in order
to make things change…
Advantages:- Your strategy will detail nearly everything: order of tasks,
stakeholders, responsible public administration bodies etc. – it’s good to se the whole picture…
- Your strategy will be relevant for NGO-s, public administration etc.
- You can start to fight for the execution of your strategy
Towers of Hanoi – planning and implementing
What shall we do first?
Instead of instant implementing:
1. Convince the Government: they do need a long-term (mid-term) strategy
2. Try to give it a legal frame – so government will have to execute it
3. Bring together experts from each side: a) experts of special educationb) Experts of public administration
