A guide to evaluating public participation
If you believe public participation has become a key element for public policy-making, and if you are a decision-maker at any level of government, there is now a new tool that can help you accomplish your goals.
Written by Diane Warburtun, Richard Wilson and Elspeth Rainbow, the guide to evaluating public participation is intended to help those involved in planning, organising or funding these activities to understand the different factors involved in creating effective public participation.
The idea is to help planners set and measure attainable objectives, evaluate impact, and identify lessons for future practice.
Behind the initiative is Involve, and the guide can be downloaded here.
