Tim Bonnemann replied to the topic What’s the ROI for Citizen Engagement? in the forum Citizen Engagement and Customer Service 8 years, 1 month ago

Just wanted to give people on this thread a quick heads-up that we will be diving into the topic of ROI specifically as it relates to public participation (involving citizens in decision making) at the upcoming 2012 North American IAP2 Conference, September 30 through October 2, in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada.

Anyone know why this case report (New Zealand Police Act Review wiki consultation) is not available on the official (?) Collaboration Project website at collaborationproject.org?

This seems to be some kind of snapshot of an earlier version of the site.
Thanks!

For those in the DC area, there is a pretty good chance that we will re-open our Mid-Atlantic chapter some time later this year. A dozen new members so far in that area alone!
