NR006 Strategies to Meaningfully Engage Stakeholders in Revitalization Planning: Foundations - Interactive Webinar Training
Community involvement in visioning and planning a better
future is undoubtedly one of the most critical elements of the
revitalization process. Doing it well can be a very challenging
task, and failing to do it well can have a major negative
impact on the process—maybe even cause its failure. An
effective, successful participatory process not only results
in revitalization plans that truly respond to a community’s
best interest, but the people engaged in it develop their
leadership skills and are better equipped to continue
advancing their community’s interests. Participants in this
course will discuss key barriers to effective community
participation and gain specific tools to overcome these
barriers. Participants will also enjoy hands-on practice and
exploration of various participatory planning techniques,
including the design charrette, the World Cafe and other
innovative participatory exercises.
This faculty-led webinar training will last 90-minutes and include resource materials, check and reflect activities, interactive polling, and participant Q & A with the faculty. A quiz will be open at the conclusion of the session which must be passed in order to obtain a certificate and credit toward continuing education hours. Participants can access the training site upon registration and begin looking at the available resources prior to the live on-line training session. Participants will complete the quiz and print their certificate immediately after the live session.
