This is a space for participants to add ideas about opportunities created by this Strategic Direction.
CLOSED: This discussion has concluded.
This is a very interesting Strategic Direction, and one that has a lot of scope and value back to members. I look forward to seeing how this is delivered and the resources that might be developed.

I am interested in the standardization of the most common practices of Public Participation.
If we can't agree, for example, on what qualifies as a "public hearing" or a "public information session" (and what does not), then how can we, as IAP2, explain to others anything more complicated?
If IAP2 wants to set and maintain standards of P2 practice, then it needs to create a Standards Committee which, of course, would attempt to operate as a model of IAP2 Core Valiues and "best practices".
