IAP2 Spectrum Evolution
Much has changed with engagement practices since the introduction of the Spectrum in 1999. We are conducting a global review to ensure that the Spectrum remains relevant and continues to inform our public participation and engagement practices.
Participation is simple — share your thoughts by completing the survey. This is an opportunity to make your voice heard and influence the future of how engagement is practiced around the world.

The survey takes less than 10 minutes on average.
