Early Registration Opening Soon

Request for Proposals Extended to April 16!

We know that life happens. If you are feeling short on time, we have good news. We have extended the deadline for Requests for Proposals for the 2021 IAP2 North American Conference: “Sound partnerships: Community engagement in times of change.”

The Conference is set for Sept. 13 - 16, and once again, it will be online. 

IAP2 welcomes innovative ideas and practice-based presentations that explore the theme: Sound partnerships: Community engagement in times of change.  

We recognize that the past year has introduced new challenges and opportunities for public participation - it has been a time of great change across the world, our nations, and within our communities. It is also a time of great possibility, as the need for good public participation is relevant now more than ever. 

How are we growing and adapting our public participation practices? How are we building partnerships, to overcome these challenges or build new opportunities? 

If you have practical approaches, tools, or inspiring stories to share with our practice, we want to hear from you. 

Please review the full Call for Proposal, the Application Questions and Apply. The deadline to submit a proposal is extended to Friday, April 16th, 2021, 11:59 PM (PST). 

Questions? Contact Erin Zimmermann at erin@iap2usa.org
