Utilizar la información actualizada de la malaria y los planes elaborados para la convocatoria de los diferentes actores sociales y lograr su participación
Fairly straightforward, but I'm stuck. Text is from Dominican Republic, but I don't think that matters.

social actors
MJ,
Both PAHO and the UN use "social actors" in their published docs. The UN's specifically indicates that the original language is English.
Purpose: To prevent and control malaria in risk areas, with an integrated approach and
the participation of all social actors.
http://www.paho.org/English/HCP/HCT/MAL/rbm-mesoamerica-cor-...
Various options are outlined for consideration by
public authorities and other social actors on which the Commission might wish to
make suggestions and recommendations.

Guess it's just more of that official lingo that sounds so odd...

[key] stakeholders
I was recently faced with this terminology repeated in an environmental impact document I was translating, which in part refered to World Bank policy. Sometimes "actores" in this context is "actors" but mnay times I found that when the authors of my text used "participacion de actores (afectados) they were using this to mean the stakeholders, key stakeholders. These types of documents frequently talk about "identification and involvement of key stakeholders."
