| Summary: | This work is comprised of six illustrated case stories in effective community engagement in the United States that demonstrate how community participation in policymaking underpin the foundations of democratic institutions. It features examples of residents participating meaningfully in decisionmaking in local government or educational and nonprofit institutions, as well as communicating with private corporations in ways other than as consumers. Unlike typical or classic engagement, where meetings are announced via limited venues and whoever comes does so with limited information, Creative Instigation describes engagement that is more authentic, outreach that is expansive and effective, research that delves deeply into qualitative areas that uncover the soul of a community or an organization. The diverse case stories in this book show tools that are compelling, ways to inform that are attractive and graphically clear, methods of dissemination that are broad and deep; and strategies that are insightful. |
