For Intrinsic, public involvement is a way of life. We have programmed and organized a wide array of interactive public meeting approaches and public participation methods, including focus groups, design and planning charrettes, stakeholder interviews, neighborhood, small-group and public meetings and briefings for public and agency officials. Our aim is to ensure that every project stakeholder is aware of, and has an opportunity to participate in, projects that have an effect on them. Intrinsic is an active member of the International Association for Public Participation (IAP2), and the co-owners of Intrinsic have presented interesting topics at its regional and annual conferences. Plus, each staff member holds a certificate in public participation from IAP2.
