Overall Star rating:

3.0 stars


Summary/Overview:

This site is aimed at academics and practitioners with an interest in public participation. There is a search facility which is used to access articles, resources and case studies. The site is focussed more on theoretical academic information and studies than on practical resources.

There is also a good list of links to international organisations working in participation on the site.

The online forum is under-used, and quite a few of the papers linked to are more than 3 years old with little recent work available.
