Spectrum of Public Participation A framework worlk that explains the different levels of engagement at which organizations can engage tIheiiir stalkelhollders/corrnirrnuirniitiies. The further to the right on the .Spectrum, the greater the influence the coirrnirrnuirniity Ihas to influence deciisiio n-malkiiirn . At each IIewO a different promise to the coirrnirrnuirniity applies.---a promise that deciisiio n-malkers can be IhelId accouirntablle to. Each IIewO requires a different type of interaction. • 7Ihe,IOorm IIewO simply provides information n thiro a lho ut a process about work being undertaken by an iiirnteitnaII or expert toairrn leading up to a decision being made. The promise its simply about Ikeeping peoplle informed .---scans vwo ulld say it its about Ihellping geoglle to understand. No input or feedback its sought from the coirrnirrnuirniity of interest. • 7Ihe orust,uft IIewO its about putting forward options or a piroposall for which feedback its sought. The promise its to listen to the coirrnirrnuirniity of interest's feedback, to carefully consider, then irrnalke decisions and finally explain Iho w this feedback Ihas basun talke n into account. • Tlhe.Jnvolve IIewO invites input and ideas from the coirrnirrnuirniity to Ihellp develop optiio ns/pote ntiiall solutions. The coirrnirrnuirniity participates earlier in the process than for the consult Hewell. The coirrnirrnuirniity its apart of developing solutions, not merely commenting about plla ns or solutions being proposed by an organization. Ultimately the organization will still irrnalke decisions, but they promise that the decisions will be informed by ideas and input. • The.Collaborate IIewO its a significant j uirrnp. it's about partnering and sharing power.--to the maxim urn extent possible (a plhirase that Ihas been used, confused and irrniisused). it talkes more tiiirrne and effort. A range of stalkelholders/corrnirrnuirniity members work together with the sponsoring organization to define the scope of the decision to be made, to develop options, to assess those options against agreed criteria in an attempt to arrive at consensus. Although more tiiirrne consurning and expensive it its the shortest route to an iiirrnpllerrne ntable solution for highly corrnpllex/co ntroversiiall decisions. • 7lhe Er pow r IIewO its essentially delegated deciisiio n-malkiiirn . it its where an organization promises to do whatever the `coirrnirrnuirniity of interest' decides.
