Description

WWF then conducted follow-up interviews and consulted with expert city planners to create this guide. The resource aims to offer city planners a springboard from which to begin their own public engagement efforts. The guide has three main sections:

  • 5 Factors for success – these tips will help guide your individual and organizational approach to public engagement;
  • Examples from WWF’s One Planet City Challenge partners and others – these examples will show you how other cities engaged their public;
  • Questions to consider – these questions will help you start planning for your own public engagement.
