IAP2 Core Values Awards 2010 Call for Submissions

The International Association for Public Participation (IAP2) today announced submissions for their 2010 Core Values Awards are now open.  From the President’s email:

I am looking forward to reading the innovations in the 2010 Core Values Awards submissions. These awards are an opportunity to showcase what is leading the practice so that others experience, learn and improve. They also help to  build organisational reputation and attract respect from peers across the global P2 community.

There has been no better time to bring the power of public participation to the fore. As a world-wide community we have the chance to demonstrate the value of public participation to support sustainable decision-making and bring people together across countries and disciples.

This year’s awards honour those who step up to the mark and meet these challenges and opportunities. [...]

More details and award categories from the announcement (PDF):

The Call for Submissions is now open for the 2010 IAP2 Core Values Awards. In 2009 IAP2 made some changes to the awards entry process, including some format changes and a standardized style for all entries. These improvements helped the judging process and improved the production of the State of the Practice Report. We also introduced a new award category in 2009 – the Innovation Award – and we are offering this category once again but with a different theme.

There are three categories:

• The Project of the Year
• The Organization of the Year
• The Innovation Award – this year’s theme is: “Addressing wicked problems through public participation.”

For inspiration, here’s the full list of 2009 State of the IAP2 Core Values Award Nominees (PDF).
