Margie’s recent interview with the International Association for Public Participation:
First and foremost, I am a practitioner – I get involved in the range of community engagement tasks from door knocks, to writing communication, to facilitating.
Secondly, I am a trainer of others, bringing what I learn as a practitioner into the training.
Thirdly, I am an advisor – doing review/ evaluations for projects, chairing consultative committees, presenting community risks to wary proponents.
