Stages of meaningful public engagement
This wheel maps out the journey or stages of meaningful public engagement—from first questions to lasting impact. It’s not a linear checklist. It’s a cycle, because real engagement is ongoing.
How to use the wheel
Start anywhere. Use it to plan a new process, reflect on a past one, or find guidance for a stage you’re stuck on. Each part links to practical resources, examples, and advice—so you’re never starting from scratch.
Wherever you are in your engagement journey, the wheel helps you move forward with clarity, confidence, and care.
