Description
The Effective Community Engagement Conference is being organised in response to requests we’ve received for a conference that explores the practical aspects of community engagement . To do this, it will feature a series of highly practical presentations from community engagement practitioners working in the three levels of Government.
Presentations will explore the ‘nuts and bolts’ of effective community engagement, covering everything from how to establish a culture of engagement and gain organisational buy-in to how to select the right tools, make the most of new technologies, measure the success of engagement initiatives and engage for social inclusion.
Attending this conference will leave you better placed to manage your organisation’s community engagement activities, and to ultimately ensure the development of more successful policies and the efficient delivery of programs, projects and services.
What you will take away:
- Ideas on how to gain organisational buy-in for engagement
- An understanding of how to effectively utilise online tools
- Strategies for managing challenges that arise during the process
- Ideas on how to measure your engagement strategies and learn from feedback going forward
