CoastWeb: Dive straight in! - A dip-in resource for engaging
the public in marine issues.
Between January and March 2006 CoastNet held a number of public
engagement workshops aimed at marine and coastal professionals.
Over 150 people attended the 5 workshops held around the UK and
represented 70 organisations . This booklet and its contents are
based on the outcomes of those workshops and aims to provide a
practical introductory dip-in resource guide on good communication
when engaging the public on coastal and marine issues. It's aim is
to help specifically those marine and coastal professionals who
have a public engagement remit but whose main area of expertise is
not in communication. The booklet is not exhaustive although it has
captured the expertise and knowledge of all the people who took
part. It contains useful tips, case studies and a huge body of
online and paper resources.
