Developing Together: Investigating best practices for community development and public consultation

Jennifer Lawrence

This investigation was undertaken in order to determine some best practices for planning and conducting public consultations (PC), community engagement (CE) sessions, and similar activities. In partnering with the Peterborough Social Planning Council (PSPC) and the Peterborough County-City Health Unit (PCCHU) I have complied data on current PC and CE practices used by governments and large scale NGOs.
