Episode 132 - Community Engagement | Part3 With Me

The podcast addresses community engagement in architectural projects, emphasizing its increasing importance and alignment with ARB and RIBA codes of conduct. It explores the RIBA Engagement Overlay, a guide promoting public participation and a standardized approach to engagement, which facilitates a democratic design process, incorporates local knowledge, and ensures projects meet stakeholder needs while aligning with UN Sustainable Development Goals. The discussion details how to integrate engagement into the RIBA Plan of Work, from appointing an engagement lead in Stage 0 to ensuring long-term engagement and adaptive maintenance in Stage 7, including considerations for stakeholder involvement, communication strategies, and addressing potential challenges. A scenario based on a RIBA examination paper illustrates these concepts in a residential project context.
