WELCOME TO IAP2 AUSTRALASIA

As the peak body for the community and stakeholder engagement sector, IAP2
Australasia, believes that engagement, when done well, improves environmental,
social and governance outcomes and increases trust in the democratic process.

We advocate for all communities to be authentically engaged in decisions that
affect them through education and increasing awareness of authentic engagement
and all its benefits, in alignment with the IAP2 Quality Assurance Standard for
Community and Stakeholder Engagement.

IAP2 DEFINITION OF ENGAGEMENT

Engagement is an intentional process with the specific purpose of working across
organisations, stakeholders, and communities to shape the decisions or actions
of members of the community, stakeholders, or organisation in relation to a
problem, opportunity, or outcome.
