This guide is for development professionals working in and designing private sector development programmes with an interest in starting an inclusive business policy development programme to help strengthen the enabling environment for inclusive business. The guide draws on the experience of development professionals and inclusive business experts who have designed and run similar Inclusive Business enabling environment (IBee) programmes. It focuses on the first phase of the programme which involves an in-depth landscaping study and stakeholder engagement process that lays the groundwork for the second phase of the programme which translates the work from the first phase into implementation and action. Links to useful tools and documents are provided throughout the guide to help readers through the process.
