Core Principles for Public Engagement

New “Core Principles for Public Engagement” doc about to be submitted to Obama open governance initiative!

From our latest NCDD Update…

As many of you know, NCDD, IAP2 and the Co-Intelligence Institute have been leading a dynamic, collaborative online process aimed at developing a set of Core Principles for Public Engagement that most people and organizations in this field can support. Numerous practitioners and leading organizations have contributed to the creation of the Core Principles, and we are excited about the result.

We are about to officially submit the Core Principles document to the people working on Obama’s open government directive, and we welcome your endorsement - as an organization or an individual. We already have dozens of endorsements from leading groups like the International Association of Facilitators, the Institute of Cultural Affairs, AmericaSpeaks, Everyday Democracy, Public Agenda, the League of Women Voters, ACR’s Environment and Public Policy Section and many more. The field is really coming together around this, and we’d love to add you as an endorser!

Learn more about the project, endorsers, our process, etc. or download the doc we’re seeking endorsements for.
