While there are almost as many definitions out there as there are people trying to define it, in its simplest
terms community engagement seeks to better engage the community to achieve long-term and
sustainable outcomes, processes, relationships, discourse, decision-making, or implementation. To be

successful, it must encompass strategies and processes that are sensitive to the community-context in
which it occurs. Engagement is not generally driven by a ‘model’ so much as by a framework of guiding
principles, strategies, and approaches. This framework is based on principles that respect the right of all
community members to be informed, consulted, involved and empowered. Community engagement
employs and range of tools and strategies to ensure success. It also places a premium on fostering and
enhancing trust as a critical element in long-term, sustainable engagement and effective governance. The
word 'community' is also a broad term used to define groups of people, whether they are stakeholders,
interest groups, or citizen groups. A community may be a geographic location (community of place), a
community of similar interest (community of practice), or a community of affiliation or identity such as
industry or sporting club. 'Community engagement' is therefore a strategic process with the specific
purpose of working with identified groups of people, whether they are connected by geographic location,
special interest, or affiliation to identify and address issues affecting their well-being. The linking of the
term 'community' to 'engagement' serves to broaden the scope, shifting the focus from the individual to
the collective, with the associated implications for inclusiveness to ensure consideration is made of the
diversity that exists within any community. In practice, community engagement is a blend of science and
art. The science comes from sociology, public policy, political science, cultural anthropology,
organizational development, psychology, social- psychology and other disciplines. It also comes from
organizing concepts drawn from the literature on community participation, community development,
constituency building, and community psychology. The art comes from the understanding, skill, and
sensitivity used to apply and adapt the science in ways that fit the community and the purposes of
specific engagement efforts. The results of these efforts may be defined differently and can encompass a
broad range of structures (e.g., coalitions, partnerships, collaborations), but they all fall under the general
rubric of community engagement and are treated similarly in this in our discussions. Community
engagement can be complex and labor-intensive and require dedicated resources such as time, funding,
and people with the necessary skills. Citizens and leaders in communities across the United States, and
indeed in many parts of the world, are struggling to make the right choices for the communities and
issues they address. Building and implementing effective strategies requires a solid grounding in the best
tools, techniques, and information available.
Citizens are ‘engaged’ when they play a meaningful role in the deliberations, discussions, decision-making
and/or implementation of projects or programs affecting them. Accordingly, organizational and
government leaders need to broaden the way they see their responsibilities to include roles as facilitator,
supporter, collaborator, and empower of citizens and stakeholders.
This change requires letting go of some of the traditional reins of power and trusting that citizens can and
will effectively engage in the issues. The result is a partnership(s) that is nearly always healthy for a
community and can more effectively address the issue or problem.

While research regarding the benefits and importance of community engagement varies, several key
opportunities are commonly identified. Among these are: Increase the likelihood that projects or
solutions will be widely accepted. Citizens who participate in these processes show significant

commitment to help make the projects happen. Create more effective solutions. Drawing on local
knowledge from a diverse group creates solutions that are practical and effective. Improve citizens’
knowledge and skills in problem solving. Participants learn about the issues in-depth. Greater knowledge
allows them to see multiple sides of the problem. Citizens can practice communication and decision-
making skills. Empower and integrate people from different backgrounds. Groups that feel ignored can
gain greater control over their lives and their community. When people from different areas of the
community work together, they often find that they have much in common. Create local networks of
community members. The more people who know what is going on and who are willing to work toward a
goal, the more likely a community is to be successful in reaching its goals. Create several opportunities for
discussing concerns. Regular, on-going discussions allow people to express concerns before problems
become too big or out of control. Increase trust in community organizations and governance. Working
together improves communication and understanding. Knowing what government, community citizens
and leaders, and organizations can and cannot do may reduce future conflict.
A well-designed engagement effort allows you to identify and understand: Differing values and priorities;
Differing frames, or ways citizens view the community or a particular project; Various alternatives and
consequences; Perceptions of benefits and risks; Different ideas and potential solutions and actions; The
characteristics and challenges of your “wicked” issue.
