Diverse Inputs and Multi-Stakeholder Feedback (DIMSF)
Plain-language explanation
A ForHumanity governance concept for deliberately incorporating people with varied lived experiences, backgrounds, cultures, perspectives, skills, expertise, protected categories, and intersectionalities into risk input, evaluation, and assessment across the system lifecycle.
Why It Matters
Governance decisions can miss material impacts when they rely on a narrow set of perspectives.
Source Context
ForHumanity uses DIMSF throughout its governance and risk criteria. The scheme expects relevant committees to define sufficient diversity and document that stakeholder input meets those standards.
In Practice
The relevant stakeholders and inputs depend on the system, affected people, context, and decision being evaluated.
