Our 340 page Citizen Participation Handbook is the main text for our CPO Consent-Building courses. In it, you’ll find:
• the 60 CP Principles that govern how things work in the strange, sometimes counter-intuitive, world of Citizen Participation.
• the 15 CP Objectives that can make or break any proposal or recommendation
• the 70+ CP Techniques that you can have in your tool box. Tools you can use to fulfill your project’s CP Objectives.
Most important, the handbook also gives you a set of worksheets—with over 300 probing questions—for assessing your project’s CP needs. And the handbook instructs you in the step-by-step process for going from CP Needs-Assessment to CP Program Design.
