What are the benefits of compensation in community engagement. I don't mean the tokenistic $20 voucher for Coles/Walmart or Bunnings/Home Depot but rigid payment policies for those who you are engaging in certain participatory processes. Or covering costs to ensure you get the experts by experience there who wouldn't normally because they need to care for someone, can't access due to transport or would normally need to work. I wrote a thing. Take a look and let us know how you are using compensation. #communityengagement #digitalengagement #compensation #expertsbyexperience

At Forward Ability Support we are always looking at how we can improve outcomes for those that we support including supporting research into SCI and the associated conditions.
Recently a member of our team Keith McNaughton met residents, staff and clinicians at Ferguson Lodge, run by Forward Ability Support It was a great opportunity to meet everyone, give an update on our current trials and studies, and to invite everyone to participate in exciting research. Thanks to Sharis Matevossian Doumit (Community Engagement Manager) and Sarah (Director of Home and Living Supports) for hosting the morning and particularly the residents for meeting with us.

This paper is one all elected, housers, community development and land use professionals should read. “In this inaugural publication, we highlight the critical need for a reparative spatial justice framework in land and housing policy. The paper uplifts key concepts, research findings, and perspectives from the field shedding light on the multifaceted nature of reparative spatial justice. Drawing from a comprehensive literature review compiled by the PolicyLink housing team and the empirical insights of qualitative research conducted by Social Insights, this paper also synthesizes conversations with advocates, practitioners, and thought leaders in the fields of spatial justice, reparations, housing justice, and land justice. The fusion of these insights frames a set of evidence-based recommendations, charting a course for researchers, policymakers, organizers, and advocates dedicated to this transformative work.” Well done Dr. Michael McAfee and PolicyLink !

The key message of this timely report from my colleagues at ADAM Architecture is that to make sustainable places that support the health and wellbeing of communities we need to take a more patient approach. This is more easily said than done in a policy climate that promotes a housebuilder model where developers build homes and then move on; PLACEMAKING TWO suggests some interventions that can make a difference. It's well worth a read 👍
We are thrilled to announce the official launch of our latest research 'Placemaking Two: A stewardship approach to creating communities' in collaboration with Farrer & Co. This reports looks at how the patient community development schemes that focus on adding value over generations, rather than chasing quick sales and returns, deliver greater rewards for investors, developers, and the local population alike. The goal is to maintain quality over time through a stewardship model and prioritize community well-being in designs.
