Online workshop | Meaningful public participation and Impact Assessment: Tools for effective engagement and communications | Workshop 3
Read MorePublic participation, often referred to as community engagement, is a cornerstone of impact assessment (IA) and planning approvals processes. However, ongoing challenges to meaningful engagement include:
