Outreach & Engagement

Outreach and Engagement is essential for businesses, charities, and even politicians. It allows for the dissemination of information and the feedback/opinions of those it impacts. It carries many benefits:
  • Increases public understanding and support for an issue
  • Decisions reflect the interests of the community
  • Allows different perspectives and opinions to be represented
  • Builds accountability and trust
  • Identifies shared community concerns, interests, and goals
  • Discovers community assets, skills, and resources

Defining

Outreach

Outreach is one-way communication that tells members of the public about an issue, problem, opportunity, or decision. It typically leads to an action.

We can define it as a short-term and directional campaign that is more beneficial to one group. Simply - What can A do for B?

However, only doing outreach can yield very limited results. Paired with other engagement strategies, it will bring many more voices and ideas into the decision-making process.

Defining

Engagement

Public Engagement can lead to broader participation and wider public input in decision-making - the public become informed about, participate in, and influence decisions.

This is a long-term and cyclical campaign that aims to build a community relationship that both benefits and connects people. It thrives on diversity and inclusion, making it a great tool for gathering information, opinions, and data

Simply - What can A and B do together?
