Engagement desktop study
Engagement Overlay to the RIBA Plan of Work, published by the RIBA in January 2024, suggests that an engagement desktop study: ‘Refers to researching and analysing past engagement outcomes in a specific area or location. Typically, this involves reviewing and studying key reports, documents, and data related to past engagement efforts, such as post-occupancy evaluations, surveys, and public feedback. An engagement desktop study aims to better understand the community's needs, priorities, and concerns and identify potential challenges or opportunities for engagement in the area. By conducting a thorough engagement desktop study, project teams can develop more effective and targeted engagement strategies bespoke to the local community's unique characteristics and needs. Ensure engagement is contextual concerning recent or concurrent engagement for projects impacting the same area or group of stakeholders.’
