IAP2

IAP2 Canada is Canada’s leading association for public participation (P2) in Canada. Our more than 500 members represent all levels of government, a diverse cross section of industry, academia and non-profit organizations. We provide our members with tools, research and networking opportunities to connect with other P2 professionals across Canada. Canadian trainers provide anyone looking to acquire new skills on how to plan, implement and evaluate public participation programs with relevant and interactive professional development. We believe those impacted by a decision have the right to participate and, that at the end of the day, this leads to better, more sustainable decisions. We believe the IAP2 spectrum for public participation, coupled with our core values, provide all public participation activities a solid framework on which to build.
