Experience as a public participation practitioner A bilingual career public servant with the Canadian federal government, Mary Moreland has more than 20 years of experience contributing to national public participation initiatives such as the creation of the Canadian Biotechnology Advisory Committee, the implementation of the National Innovation and Learning Engagement Strategy, coordinating outreach activities during the United Nations Climate Change Conference as well as working on secondment to other regulatory departments such as Health Canada (Office of Consumer and Public Involvement) and Environment Canada (Corporate Consultations Directorate). While her work is often at the national level, her community volunteer commitments keep her grounded in what’s happening at the local level. Mary has been an accredited trainer for IAP2’s five day Public Participation Certificate Course since 2005. Mary has presented P2 themed sessions at conferences and in university and other class settings. For workshops, she strives to design creative and interactive panel sessions reflecting the best of P2 practices. Mary pioneered the launch of IAP2’s French language training and volunteered her time (and friends’!) to revise translations. She is the only IAP2 trainer delivering courses in French and has been a supporter over the years of AIP2 France and it’s unfolding. Mary is active with IAP2 Canada and is a member of the IAP2 St. Lawrence chapter. She is also engaged with the government’s P2 community, which she finds key to staying current. Early on Mary worked with national and international youth and community development programs in Canada and in Pakistan, which fostered her cross cultural training and facilitation skills based on adult education principles. A wonderful part of training for Mary is the opportunity to learn from participants as they share their stories about the consultations they have worked on and talk about how they might improve their next ones by implementing what they are learning from their IAP2 courses and from their peers. // Expérience en tant que praticien de la participation publique Fonctionnaire de carrière bilingue au sein du gouvernement fédéral canadien, Mary Moreland possède plus de 20 ans d'expérience dans la contribution à des initiatives nationales de participation du public telles que la création du Comité consultatif canadien de la biotechnologie, la mise en œuvre de la Stratégie nationale d'engagement en matière d'innovation et d'apprentissage, la coordination des activités de sensibilisation. activités pendant la Conférence des Nations Unies sur les changements climatiques ainsi que travailler en détachement auprès d'autres ministères de réglementation tels que Santé Canada (Bureau de la participation des consommateurs et du public) et Environnement Canada (Direction des consultations avec les entreprises). Même si son travail se déroule souvent au niveau national, ses engagements bénévoles communautaires la maintiennent ancrée dans ce qui se passe au niveau local. Mary est formatrice accréditée pour le cours de cinq jours du certificat de participation publique de l'AIP2 depuis 2005. Mary a présenté des séances thématiques P2 lors de conférences, à l'université et dans d'autres contextes de classe. Pour les ateliers, elle s'efforce de concevoir des séances de panel créatives et interactives reflétant les meilleures pratiques de P2. Mary a été pionnière dans le lancement de la formation en français de l'AIP2 et a donné de son temps (et celui de ses amis !) pour réviser les traductions. Elle est la seule formatrice AIP2 à dispenser des cours en français et soutient au fil des années l’AIP2 France et son développement. Mary est active au sein de l'AIP2 Canada et est membre de la section AIP2 Saint-Laurent. Elle est également engagée auprès de la communauté P2 du gouvernement, qu’elle considère essentielle pour rester à jour. Très tôt, Mary a travaillé avec des programmes nationaux et internationaux de développement de la jeunesse et de la communauté au Canada et au Pakistan, ce qui a favorisé sa formation interculturelle et ses compétences d'animation basées sur les principes de l'éducation des adultes. Une partie merveilleuse de la formation pour Mary est l'opportunité d'apprendre des participants en partageant leurs histoires sur les consultations sur lesquelles ils ont travaillé et en discutant de la manière dont ils pourraient améliorer les prochaines en mettant en œuvre ce qu'ils ont appris de leurs cours AIP2 et de leurs pairs. |
