North American Energy Sector Community of Practice
Welcome to IAP2's North American Energy Sector Community of Practice, where public participation (P2) practitioners and energy enthusiasts unite to ignite the power of meaningful engagement.
Four times a year, this vibrant community swings open its doors, inviting everyone with an energy for change to step in. Whether you're a seasoned P2 pro working for an energy titan, a regulator steering the industry, a consultant crafting innovative solutions, or an academic immersed in the energy landscape, you belong here.
Our gatherings are not your typical meetings. They are exhilarating journeys into the heart of topics that matter most, carefully selected in advance. And guess what? You become the maestro of these discussions. Community members take turns in the spotlight, sharing their expertise, insights, and stories that shape the energy narrative.
At IAP2's North American Energy Sector Community of Practice, we're not just talking about change – we're driving it.
