We're on the look out for examples of 'good public consultations' in England👁🗨
I.e. those that capture a diversity of voices and include people of all ages, backgrounds, education levels, disabilities, and ethnicities.

These case studies will be shared on the EYPiC website and social media channels. We hope that they, along with the EYPiC resources already available, will help to highlight to others what methods could be employed to increase engagement with this population group. (3/4)

1/4) We met the E-Drone team at the TPM conference. We heard they conducted a study to explore people's perceptions of logistics drones & that they achieved high engagement from young people. We wanted to hear more!
More info about E-Drone here: e-drone.org/
4/4) We produced a case study infographic of the E-Drone project to highlight how they achieved high engagement.
We also showed how their methods align with the EYPiC toolkit.
And we provide recommendations for future research and consultations.
