Field Trips

Pre-Conference Workshop: The Art & Science of Engaging Communities in Coastal Adaptation: Real people, engaged through successful strategies

Course Date: Tuesday 3 June 2025

Course Location: Griffith University, Gold Coast Campus

Course Timings: 1.30pm - 5.00pm

Please contact Dr Kathleen Broderick if you have any questions: kathleen@broderickandassociates.com.au

 

The work of those involved in community engagement is as much art as science and designing engagement requires an approach tailored to the local context. Through a review of the CoastAdapt community engagement manual, a panel comprised of local government managers, consultants and academics across Australia and New Zealand shared their experiences and expertise. This process revealed stories and case studies of leading practice that will provide inspiration to novice and experienced coastal managers. Adopting a social learning approach and working through a six-step cycle will enable strategic action. But that’s just the mechanics of it. Adopting a creative approach to design of engagement processes and actions can deliver powerful results through effectively engaging with current community leaders and activities, planning for and communicating a variety of opportunities for consultation throughout the adaptation journey, and ensuring the process engages both with ‘rationality and human emotions and feelings’ (Coyne 2005). Thoughtfully seeking opportunities for participants to express challenging concepts and values creatively can engage and provide meaningful interaction.

Importantly, viewing coastal adaptation as part of complex systems change where progress is not necessarily linear, requires viewing both social and coastal systems as an integrated whole and creatively exploring opportunities for change.

 

Workshop outcomes: Participants will: 

  •  gain insights into the changing nature of coastal communities
  • experience case examples of successful creative coastal engagement techniques
  • be provided with practical and effective techniques to engage and processes to facilitate adaptation
