ENGAGEMENT EXHIBITIONS

Public exhibitions form the backbone of most engagement strategies but do not always represent the most appropriate way for communities to actively participate in the evolution and design of a major development.  This is particularly relevant when local community support is a key consideration in a site’s allocation in a development plan or in determining a planning application.

The principal role of the engagement exhibition is to both feed back and inform large numbers of community members.  When used appropriately they can be a useful technique for starting a structured engagement programme, to mark keep milestone in a project’s evolution or to provide local residents and businesses about an imminent planning application.  If a proposal is particularly significant in terms of scale or complexity they provide only a limited opportunity to generate support or to explore technically challenging and complex themes.  Consequently their use in conjunction with other types of event is usually essential.
