What we do Community Engagement

Communities & Stakeholders

At PRP we have extensive experience in listening, learning and understanding the needs of communities. Our work with a wide variety of stakeholder groups and diverse communities has enabled us to develop different ways to get people involved with creative design exercises; and engage in constructive conversations.

Engagement is integrated into the core of PRPs work. PRP’s engagement practices has reinforced our belief that designing with existing communities, instead of for them, is central to rebuilding sustainable developments of the future.
