Building healthy, equitable communities for all means authentically engaging community members in a way that develops trust, communication and collaboration—especially for those folks in our communities who are under-served or harder-to-reach. We know we must integrate an equity lens into our engagement planning at the fundamental stages of the process; but how do we do this in a way that ensures the community members who give their time and energy to our engagement processes are as empowered as possible?

Join BC Healthy Communities and a panel of community engagement experts on Wednesday, September 9 for a closer examination of power and its role in public engagement. Through this panel discussion format, we'll share strategies, tools, and resources that can be used in practice to ensure that your engagement efforts are equitable and empowering.
