Course description
This course examines the role of communities in planning processes. The first part of the course discusses the concept of community, community engagement and participation, as well as analysing the frameworks and tools that encourage (or not) community engagement in national and international contexts. The second part of the course discusses community engagement processes from the perspective of communities and civil society organisations in general, governments, and private sector organisations.
