Produced by IAP2 Canada’s Research Committee, this data brief is described by the organization as a short, national survey-based snapshot of public participation and engagement practitioners across Canada, intended to give the field a current read on the pressures and trends reshaping their work. Because the underlying PDF could not be independently accessed (it returns an access error to automated retrieval), the specific survey sample size, methodology, and detailed findings beyond this general framing have not been independently confirmed.
